Patrick Rothfuss
“Isn't that the way of the world? We want the sweet things, but we need the unpleasant ones.”
Patrick Rothfuss, The Name of the Wind
tags: life

Patrick Rothfuss
“Conoces a una chica tímida y sencilla. Si le dices que es hermosa, ella pensará que eres simpático, pero no te creerá. Sabe que esa belleza es obra de tu contemplación. Y a veces basta con eso.

Pero existe una manera mejor de hacerlo. Le demuestras que es hermosa. Conviertes tus ojos en espejos, tus manos en plegarias cuando la acaricias. Es difícil, muy difícil, pero cuando ella se convence de que dices la verdad... De pronto la historia que ella se cuenta a sí misma cambia. Se transforma. Ya no la ven hermosa. Es hermosa, y la ven.”
Patrick Rothfuss, The Name of the Wind

Patrick Rothfuss
“There’s a fundamental connection between seeming and being. We understand how dangerous a mask can be. We all become what we pretend to be...
It’s like everyone tells a story about themselves inside their own head. Always. All the time. That story makes you what you are. We build ourselves out of that story...
No, listen. I’ve got it now. You meet a girl: shy, unassuming. If you tell her she’s beautiful, she’ll think you’re sweet, but she won’t believe you. She knows that beauty lies in your beholding. And sometimes that’s enough. But there’s a better way. You show her she is beautiful. You make mirrors of your eyes, prayers of your hands against her body. It is hard, very hard, but when she truly believes you, the story she tells herself in her own head changes. She transforms. She isn’t seen as beautiful. She is beautiful, seen.”
Patrick Rothfuss, The Name of the Wind

Patrick Rothfuss
“Estuviera donde estuviese, siempre era el centro de todas las miradas.— Kvothe frunció el ceño—. No me interpretéis mal. No quiero decir que fuera llamativa, ni vanidosa. Si miramos el fuego es porque parpadea, porque resplandece. Lo que atrae nuestra mirada es la luz, pero lo que hace que un hombre se acerque al fuego no tiene nada que ver con su resplandor. Lo que te atrae del fuego es el calor que sientes cuando te acercas a él.”
Patrick Rothfuss, The Name of the Wind

“Somos algo más que las partes que nos conforman.”
Patrick Rothfuss, The Name of the Wind
