    “It is said that your life flashes before your eyes just before you die. That is true, it's called Life.”

I only recently started reading Terry Pratchett's stuff, but I quickly began devouring everything he's written. Some of the most earnest writing I've had the pleasure of reading, and the fact that he's passed away, even though I've only just gotten into his works, makes it no less painful.

In short: Alzheimer's fucking sucks.
