One of my all-time favorite Discworld quotes is from Hogfather. Death is talking to his granddaughter Susan. It's important to note that Death speaks in all caps. It's not because he's shouting. It's (I suppose) because he's death:
YOU NEED TO BELIEVE IN THINGS THAT AREN'T TRUE. HOW ELSE CAN THEY BECOME?
I love it. It fits perfectly in the context of the book and, for me anyway, has meaning outside it.
