DEATH
Terry Pratchett is an absolutely brilliant writer and his books really amuse me :)
DEATH, found in several of his books, is the quirkiest and most memorable character in a book ever – I adore him to bits! Don’t you just love him too? ♥
Here’s a few of my favourite Pratchett quotes:
- DON’T WORRY, IT WON’T BE FOREVER.
- Good.
- IT MAY SEEM LIKE FOREVER.
As far as Death was aware, the sole reason for any human association with pigs and lambs was as a prelude to chops and sausages. Quite why they should dress up for children’s wallpaper as well was a mystery. Hello, little folk, this is what you’re going to eat… He felt that if only he could find the key to it, he’d know a lot more about human beings.
– Terry Pratchett, Hogfather
IT IS … UNFAIR.
“That’s life, master.”
BUT I’M NOT.
“I meant this is how it’s supposed to go, master,” said Albert.
NO. YOU MEAN THIS IS HOW IT GOES.
– Terry Pratchett, Hogfather
- DON’T WORRY, IT WON’T BE FOREVER.
- Good.
- IT MAY SEEM LIKE FOREVER.
– Terry Pratchett, Wyrd Sisters
When all else failed, she tried being reasonable.
– Terry Pratchett, Johnny and the Bomb
…’We were born vampires.’
‘ I thought you became –’
‘ — vampires by being bitten? Dear me, no. Oh, we can turn people into vampires, it’s an easy technique, but what would be the point? When you eat… now what is it you eat? Oh yes, chocolate… you don’t want to turn it into another Agnes Nitt, do you? Less chocolate to go around.’
He sighed. ‘Oh dear, superstition, superstition everywhere we turn.’…
– Terry Pratchett, Carpe Jugulum
ON THE VERY EDGE YOU WILL ALWAYS FIND SOME UNCERTAINTY.
