“Animals don't know as much about jealousy as people, but they're not ignorant of it, either.”

“People don't know anything about themselves because they're all worried about everybody else.”

“People don't expect too much from literature. They just want to know they're not alone with being confused.”

“Wizards don't believe in gods in the same way that most people don't find it necessary to believe in, say, tables. They know they're there, they know they're there for a purpose, they'd probably agree that they have a place in a well-organised universe, but they wouldn't see the point of believing, of going around saying "O great table, without whom we are as naught." Anyway, either the gods are there whether you believe in them or not, or exist only as a function of the belief, so either way you might as well ignore the whole business and, as it were, eat off your knees.”

“The best thing about animals is they don't talk much”

“Too many people who don't know anything about anything say too much about what they don't know.”
