A quotation from Terry Pratchett
Light thinks it travels faster than anything but it is wrong. No matter how fast light travels it finds the darkness has always got there first, and is waiting for it.
Terry Pratchett (1948-2015) English author
Reaper Man (1991)

I have always loved this quote:
""I meant," said Ipslore bittery,
"what is there in this world that
truly makes living worthwhile?"
Death thought about it.
"CATS," he said eventually.
"CATS ARE NICE"."
- Terry Pratchett, Sourcery
Another Hug your Cat Day (in case you really needed an excuse) - or, simply remember they are gods of the household and require a little worship now and then...
"The presence of those seeking the truth is infinitely to be preferred to the presence of those who think they've found it." — Monstrous Regiment

'Is it like this every night?'
EVERY NIGHT, said Death. NATURE'S LIKE THAT.
'Doesn't anyone know?'
ME. You. THE GODS. GOOD, IS IT?
'Gosh!'
Death leaned over the saddle and looked down at the kingdoms of the world.
I DON'T KNOW ABOUT YOU, he said, BUT I COULD MURDER A CURRY.
