Dragon314 he/him Posted July 6, 2020 Posted July 6, 2020 Recently reread Stormlight and I cannot get this quote out of my head. It's something like "No man lives up to his ideals". Any help finding it would be greatly appreciated.
Gderu Posted July 6, 2020 Posted July 6, 2020 Maybe it's "sometimes a hypocrite is just a man changing"? 1

I can do a quick search on my kindle on all three, but if i knew which one to narrow my search it would help expedite the process.

Quote Sadeas sniffed. “That book ruined Gavilar. Now it’s doing the same to you. You’ve listened to those stories so much they’ve got your head full of false ideals. Nobody ever really lived the way the Codes claim.” Ch. 26, Stillness, WoK. 2

Might help narrow it down.
