“It's the questions we can't answer that teach us the most. They teach us how to think. If you give a man an answer, all he gains is a little fact. But give him a question and he'll look for his own answers.”
― Patrick Rothfuss, The Wise Man's Fear

“The truth is that the world is full of dragons, and none of us are as powerful or cool as we’d like to be. And that sucks. But when you’re confronted with that fact, you can either crawl into a hole and quit, or you can get out there, take off your shoes, and Bilbo it up.”

“I have an apple that thinks its a pear. And a bun that thinks it’s a cat. And a lettuce that thinks its a lettuce."
"It’s a clever lettuce, then."
"Hardly," she said with a delicate snort. "Why would anything clever think it’s a lettuce?"
"Even if it is a lettuce?" I asked.
"Especially then," she said. "Bad enough to be a lettuce. How awful to think you are a lettuce too.”
― Patrick Rothfuss, The Wise Man's Fear

“Todos tenemos dos mentes: una mente despierta y otra mente dormida. Nuestra mente despierta es la que piensa, habla y razona. Pero la mente dormida es más poderosa. Ella ve en lo más profundo de las cosas. Es la parte de nosotros que sueña. Lo recuerda todo. Nos proporciona intuición. Tu mente despierta no entiende la naturaleza de los nombres. Pero tu mente dormida sí. Ella sabe muchas cosas que tu mente despierta ignora.”
― Patrick Rothfuss, The Name of the Wind
