It is often said that before you die your life passes before... - Terry Pratchett

"Wisdom comes from experience. Experience is often a result of lack of wisdom."

"[Science fiction is] out in the mainstream now. You can tell by the way mainstream literary authors pillage SF while denying they're writing it!"

"If you have enough book space, I don't want to talk to you."

"Books must be treated with respect, we feel that in our bones, because words have power. Bring enough words together they can bend space and time."

"Stories of imagination tend to upset those without one."
