More From Terry Pratchett

Towns are full of people, houses full of tenants, hotels full of guests, trains full of travelers, cafés full of customers, parks full of promenaders, consulting-rooms of famous doctors full of patients, theatres full of spectators, and beaches full of bathers. what previously was, in general, no problem, now begins to be an everyday one, namely, to find room.

When you sit in a café, with a lot of music in the background and a lot of projects in your head, you're not really drinking your coffee or your tea. you're drinking your projects, you're drinking your worries. you are not real, and the coffee is not real either. your coffee can only reveal itself to you as a reality when you go back to your self and produce your true presence, freeing yourself from the past, the future, and from your worries. when you are real, the tea also becomes real and the encounter between you and the tea is real. this is genuine tea drinking.

I got this big fear of doing smoking jokes in my act and showing up five years from now goin' [puts mic to his neck and speaks as if he had a mechanical larynx] 'good evening everybody, remember me, smoking's bad.

You see, dash -- i was never the girl in your head. and you were never the boy in my head. i think we both knew that. it's only when we try to make the girl or boy in our head real that the true trouble comes. i did that with carlos, and it was a bad failure. be careful what you're doing, because no one is ever who you want them to be. and the less you really know them, the more likely you are to confuse them with the girl or boy in your head.

You never know the biggest day of your life is your biggest day, not until it’s happening. you don’t recognize the biggest day of your life, not until you’re right in the middle of it. the day you commit to something or someone. the day you get your heart broken. the day you meet your soul mate. the day you realize there’s not enough time because you wanna live forever. those are the biggest days. the perfect days.
Heart Perfect Days Broken
Terence o'ryan heard him and straightway brought him a crystal cup full of the foaming ebon ale which the noble twin brothers bungiveagh and bungardilaun brew ever in their divine alevats, cunning as the sons of deathless leda. for they garner the succulent berries of the hop and mass and sift and bruise and brew them and they mix therewith sour juices and bring the must to the sacred fire and cease not night or day from their toil, those cunning brothers, lords of the vat.

When i look at him, i don't see the cowardly young man who sold me out to jeanine matthews, and i don't hear the excuses he gave afterward. when i look at him, i see the boy who held my hand in the hospital when our mother broke her wrist and told me it would be all right. i see the brother who told me to make my own choices, the night before the choosing ceremony. i think of all the remarkable things he is--smart and enthusiastic and observant, quiet and earnest and kind.
