More From Terry Pratchett

The only sense we still respect is eyesight, probably because it is so closely attached to the brain. go into any american house at random, you will find something - a plastic flower, false tiles, some imitation something - something which can be appreciated as material only if apprehended by eyesight alone. don't we go sightseeing in cars, thinking we can experience a landscape by looking at it through glass?

You could not possibly maintain the current level of government taxation without the taxes being hidden, and they are hidden in two very different ways. they are hidden through withholding, but they are also hidden by being imposed on business, supposedly on business, when really, of course, business can't pay taxes, only people can pay taxes.

Imagine hidden in a simpler exterior a secret receptacle wherein the most precious treasure is deposited - there is a spring which has to be pressed, but the spring is hidden, and the pressure must have a certain strength, so that an accidental pressure would not be sufficient. so likewise is the hope of eternity hidden in man's inmost parts, and affliction is the pressure. when it presses the hidden spring, and strongly enough, then the contents appear in all their glory.

I remember people saying, "believe me, everything in your life is going to change..." and i thought, "why? that's such a bourgeois way of thinking." and then you have a child and yes, everything changes. it affects the way we live, what we do, and where we go - everything. and i wouldn't have in any other way.
