Patrick Rothfuss Quote #1
-Mi abuelo siempre decía que el otoño es la estación idónea para arrancar de raíz cualquier cosa que no quieras que vuelva a molestarte. -Kote imitó la temblorosa voz de un anciano-. En los meses de primavera todo está demasiado lleno de vida. En verano, está demasiado fuerte y no hay manera de soltarlo. El otoño... -Miró alrededor; las hojas de los árboles estaban cambiando de color-. El otoño es el momento idóneo. En otoño todo está cansado y más dispuesto a morir.

... for most practical purposes, Tarbean had two parts: Waterside and Hillside. Waterside is where people are poor. That makes them beggars, thieves and whores. Hillside is where people are rich. That makes them solicitors, politicians and courtesans.

—Denna.Patrick Rothfuss Quote #6
A poet is a musician that can't sing. Words have to find a man's mind before they can touch his heart, and some men's minds are woeful small targets. Music touches their hearts directly no matter how small or stubborn the mind of the man who listens.

Patrick Rothfuss Quote #10
A woman who goes around wearing a knife is obviously looking for trouble. She reached deep into her pocket and brought out a long, slender piece of metal, glittering all along one edge. However a woman who carries a knife is ready for trouble. Generally speaking, it's easier to appear harmless. It's less trouble all around.
Patrick Rothfuss Quote #11
After an awkward pause, Bast extended his hand. Chronicler hesitated for a bare moment before reaching out quickly, as if he were sticking his hand into a fire.
Nothing happened, both of them seemed moderately surprised.
Amazing, isn't it? Kvothe addressed them bitingly. Five fingers and flesh with blood beneath. One could almost believe that on the other end of that hand lay a person of some sort.Patrick Rothfuss Quote #12
All stories are true,” Skarpi said. “But this one really happened, if that’s what you mean.” He took another slow drink, then smiled again, his bright eyes dancing. “More or less. You have to be a bit of a liar to tell a story the right way. Too much truth confuses the facts. Too much honesty makes you sound insincere.
Patrick Rothfuss Quote #13
And there was Ambrose. To deem us simply enemies is to lose the true flavours of our relationship. It was more like the two of us entered into a business partnership in order to more efficiently pursue our mutual interest of hating each other.
Patrick Rothfuss Quote #14
Answers were always important, but they were seldom easy.
Patrick Rothfuss Quote #15
Anyone can love a thing because. That's as easy as putting a penny in your pocket.
But to love something despite. To know the flaws and love them too. That is rare and pure and perfect.Patrick Rothfuss Quote #16
Anything you say at this point cannot be trusted. You know I am well and truly angry, so you are in the grip of fear. This means I cannot trust any word you say, as it comes from fear. You are clever, and charming, and a liar. I know you can bend the world with your words. So I will not listen.
Patrick Rothfuss Quote #17
Are you hurt?
Absolutely, I said. Especially in my everywhere.Patrick Rothfuss Quote #18
As I fingered my way through the songs, I felt my worries slough away. My music has always been the best remedy for my dark moods. As I sang, even my bruises seemed to pain me less.
Patrick Rothfuss Quote #19
As my father used to say: “There are two sure ways to lose a friend, one is to borrow, the other to lend.” - Kvothe the Bloodless (The Name of The Wind)

Patrick Rothfuss Quote #21
Auri, I asked slowly, are you joking with me?
She looked up and grinned. Yes I am, she said proudly. Isn't it wonderful?Patrick Rothfuss Quote #22
Bad business last night. Chances are, that would be all Graham had to say about the death of a man he had known his whole life. These folk knew all about death. They killed their own livestock. They died from fevers, falls, or broken bones gone sour. Death was like an unpleasant neighbor. You didn't talk about him for fear he might hear you and decide to pay a visit.
Patrick Rothfuss Quote #23
Bast looked at him incredulously.The whole world is burning down,he said.Open your eyes.
Patrick Rothfuss Quote #24

But for half a minute she wished it was a different sort of day, even though she knew that nothing good could come from wanting at the world. Even though she knew it was a wicked thing to do.
Patrick Rothfuss Quote #28
But it isn’t a rough draft either. The one I turned in several months ago was rough. There were some bad plot holes, some logical inconsistencies, pacing problems, and not nearly enough lesbian unicorns.
Patrick Rothfuss Quote #29
But laugh? He pressed the flat of his hand against my stomach. Here lives laugh. He ran his finger straight up to my mouth and spread his fingers. Push back laugh is not good. Not healthy.
Also cry? I asked. I traced an imaginary tear down my cheek with one finger.
Also cry. He put his hand on his own belly. Ha ha ha, he said, pressing his hand to show me the motion of his stomach. Then his expression changed to sad. Huh huh huh, he heaved with exaggerated sobs, pressing his stomach again. Same place. Not healthy to push down.Patrick Rothfuss Quote #30
But no. There is a difference between the truth and what we wish were true.
