His mouth said: "Would you like to have dinner tonight?" For just the skin of a second, Miss Dearheart was surprised, but not half as surprised as Moist. Then her natural cynicism reinflated.
"I like to have dinner every night. With you? No. I have things to do. Thank you for asking."
"No problem," said Moist, slightly relieved.
Learning how not to do things is as hard as learning how to do them. Harder, maybe. There'd be a sight more frogs in this world if I didn't know how not to turn people into them. And big pink balloons, too.

James Bond just unscrews things
Terry PratchettNone of these lads here were out getting fighting drunk last night. And thus we wear down mountains. Water dripping on a stone, dissolving and removing. Changing the shape of the world, one drop at a time. Water dripping on a stone, Commander. Water flowing underground, bubbling up in unexpected places.

Mort was hurt by this. It was one thing not to want to marry someone, but quite another to be told they didn't want to marry you.
Terry PratchettСтруваше им се, че в тях няма нищо чудно. Личеше, че светът е плосък, макар в пределите на Ланкър единствените плоски места да бяха кухненските маси и някои плешиви темета. Знаеше се, че костенурките могат да носят тежък товар. А и слоновете си бяха силни. Следователно в твърденията не зееха видими пролуки и жителите на Ланкър предпочитаха да не размишляват излишно по този въпрос.
Terry PratchettЕ, ако трябва да избирам дали да пожелая на детето здраве, богатство и щастие, или да поискам да е под закрилата на Баба, ясно ми е какво предпочитам — заяви Маграт. — Сигурно си я виждала каква е, когато се развихри.
Terry PratchettВ Ланкър още царяха патриархални нрави, тоест всеки враждуваше постоянно с всички останали и предаваше обтегнатите отношения на потомството. Някои дрязги се точеха поколения наред. Сред тях имаше и такива, които бяха придобили антикварна стойност. В Ланкър добрата стара вражда се ценеше не по-малко от хубавото отлежало вино. Човек си я наглеждаше и я оставяше в наследство на децата си.
Terry PratchettRough Music...
"No one controls the music, Mr. Pretty - you know that. It just turns up when people have had enough. No one knows where it starts. People look around, and catch on another's eye, and give each other a little nod, and other people see that. Other people catch their eye and so, very slowly, the music starts and somebody picks up a spoon and bangs it on a plate, and then somebody else bangs a jug on the table and boots starts to stamp on the floor, louder and louder. It is the sound of anger, it is the sound of people who have had enough. Do you want to face the music?
Ами че то е едно да се фукаш, че имаш най-добрия бог, ама да говориш, че бил единственият истински бог, си е възнахалничко, ако питат мен.
