More quotes by Terry Pratchett, Soul Music

"It was sad music. But it waved its sadness like a battle flag. It said the universe had done all it could, but you were still alive."
"Be careful what you wish for. You never know who will be listening."
"The universe danced towards life. Life was a remarkably common commodity. Anything sufficiently complicated seemed to get cut in for some, in the same way that anything massive enough got a generous helping of gravity. The universe had a definite tendency towards awareness. This suggested a certain subtle cruelty woven into the very fabric of space-time."
