The wisdom of Terry Pratchett

[Willot]

“There are, it has been said, two types of people in the world. There are those who, when presented with a glass that is exactly half full, say: this glass is half full. And then there are those who say: this glass is half empty. The world belongs, however, to those who can look at the glass and say: What’s up with this glass? Excuse me? Excuse me? This is my glass? I don’t think so. My glass was full! And it was a bigger glass!”
— Terry Pratchett, The Truth

I've just started reading Cold Days (Dresden Files) and in it Harry Quotes and then names Terry:

“Give a man a fire and he's warm for a day, but set fire to him and he's warm for the rest of his life.”
