Interesting Concept Quotes

“The King’s Wit was not a silly court fool such as one might find in other kingdoms. He was a sword, a tool maintained by the king. Insulting others was beneath the dignity of the king, so just as one used gloves when forced to handle something vile, the king retained a Wit so he didn’t have to debase himself to the level of rudeness or offensiveness.”
― Brandon Sanderson, The Way of Kings (2 of 5) [Dramatized Adaptation]
