    Patrick Rothfuss
    “I have stolen princesses back from sleeping barrow kings. I burned down the town of Trebon. I have spent the night with Felurian and left with both my sanity and my life.

I have talked to gods, loved women, and written songs that make the minstrels weep. You may have heard of me.”
