“Your God person puts an apple tree in the middle of a garden and says, do what you like, guys, oh, but don't eat the apple. Surprise surprise, they eat it and he leaps out from behind a bush shouting "Gotcha". It wouldn't have made any difference if they hadn't eaten it.'
'Why not?'
'Because if you're dealing with somebody who has the sort of mentality which likes leaving hats on the pavement with bricks under them you know perfectly well they won't give up. They'll get you in the end.”
― The Restaurant at the End of the Universe

“Dwarfs were not a naturally religious species, but in a world where pit props could crack without warning and pockets of fire damp could suddenly explode they'd seen the need for gods as the sort of supernatural equivalent of a hard hat. Besides, when you hit your thumb with an eight-pound hammer it's nice to be able to blaspheme. It takes a very special and strong-minded kind of atheist to jump up and down with their hand clasped under their other armpit and shout, "Oh, random-fluctuations-in-the-space-time-continuum!" or "Aaargh, primitive-and-outmoded-concept on a crutch!”

“Trei inele pentru stăpânii elfi cei de sub soare,
Şapte pentru ei, piticii de viţă din săli de stâncă,
Nouă, Oamenilor care ştiu că-n lumea lor se moare,
Unul pentru el, Seniorul Întunecimii-n noaptea lui adâncă
Unde-s Umbrele în Ţinutul Mordor, ca să le găsească.
Şi pe toate să le-adune un inel, şi altul nime,
Să le ferece pe toate, astfel să le stăpânească,
Unde-s Umbrele, în Ţinutul Mordor, în întunecime.”

“Without pain, how could we know joy?' This is an old argument in the field of thinking about suffering and its stupidity and lack of sophistication could be plumbed for centuries but suffice it to say that the existence of broccoli does not, in any way, affect the taste of chocolate.”
