“Kvothe nodded. “Teccam said the same thing: No man is brave that has
never walked a hundred miles. If you want to know the truth of who you are,
walk until not a person knows your name. Travel is the great leveler, the
great teacher, bitter as medicine, crueler than mirror-glass. A long stretch of
road will teach you more about yourself than a hundred years of quiet
introspection”
― Patrick Rothfuss, The Wise Man's Fear

“One book I own speaks of wind and rivers and ice sculpting the world in the misty long ago, but that sounds like a story for children, and a dull one at that. Better to talk of wind demons, river gods, and ice giants out of Jotenheim. It’s a more interesting tale and just as likely.”
― Mark Lawrence, King of Thorns

“Isn’t it splendid to think of all the things there are to find out about? It just makes me feel glad to be alive—it’s such an interesting world. It wouldn’t be half so interesting if we know all about everything, would it? There’d be no scope for imagination then, would there?”
― L.M. Montgomery, Anne of Green Gables

“There are times when the mind is dealt such a blow it hides itself in insanity. While this may not seem beneficial, it is. There are times when reality is nothing but pain, and to escape that pain the mind must leave reality behind.”
― Patrick Rothfuss, The Name of the Wind
