Wyndleblade she/her Posted December 18, 2020 Posted December 18, 2020 What are people's top 2 quotes from RoW? Optional, why? 1. "He said to tell you that we trust you... And love you. He said I should tell you that you deserve trust and love. And you do" (Wit and Pattern) 2. "Venli, they have come back to us! They've forgiven us."(Leshwi) These two quotes had a big emotional impact for me because of the forgiveness for wrongs done in each. 5
Theoryspren Posted December 18, 2020 Posted December 18, 2020 1. “We chose.” - Maya 2. “Venli, they have come back to us! They’ve forgiven us.” - Leshwi 2
Truthwatcher Artifabrian he/him Posted December 18, 2020 Posted December 18, 2020 I accept it! - Kaladin These words are accepted. - Dalinar
Kitch Posted December 18, 2020 Posted December 18, 2020 Teft being right there for the 4th ideal ...was forgiven....was forgiven and close.
GameOfGroans Posted December 20, 2020 Posted December 20, 2020 "Oh, storms, she thought. Oh, rhythms ancient and new. I belong here." (Venli, chapter Songs of Stones) Will come back when I remember the second one
TheOneKEA Posted December 20, 2020 Posted December 20, 2020 “YOU CANNOT HAVE MY SACRIFICE!” This was a tremendous moment for me, because it shows just now human the Radiant spren can really be, and how much of herself Maya has regained. 4

Frustration Posted December 24, 2020 Posted December 24, 2020 On 12/21/2020 at 1:02 PM, WasingtheWhy said: I only have one. You can never have too many swords. Straight fact
CaptainRyan he/him Posted December 27, 2020 Posted December 27, 2020 "I am the storm." Kaladin to the Pursuer "Journey before destination, bastard." Navani to Moash 4
Ashbringer he/him Posted December 27, 2020 Posted December 27, 2020 "I am literally unable to do as you ask, not without destroying myself in the process." -Odium "I will take this bond to the Stormfather. I will bear it myself. I sense... something odd in you. A Connection to Odium. He sees you as... as the one who will fight against him. This cannot be right. I will take that Connection as well." -Ishar, rated perfectly sane by 4 / 5 dentists Heralds 8
Requiem17 she/her Posted January 7, 2021 Posted January 7, 2021 1. Journey before destination, you bastard. - I likely won't forget that line ever. Too badass. 2. I will seek freedom for those in bondage. - I've been hyped for a Willshaper Oath ever since I found out it was my order. 3
NeonGenesis Posted January 22, 2021 Posted January 22, 2021 Only got 1 so far that really stuck with me. "I've heard what people say about you. Your life isn't the blood in your veins, but the legend you live. Each death kills that legend a little more. Each time I defeat you, it will rip you apart. Until you're no longer known as the Pursuer. You'll be known as the Defeated. The creature who, no matter how hard he tries, can't ever beat ME." - Kaladin F'in Stormblessed. 10

My other one would probably be Maya YOU CANNOT HAVE MY SACRIFICE! 1
Dreamwa1ker she/her Posted January 23, 2021 Posted January 23, 2021 "“Honor is not dead so long as he lives in the hearts of men!” EPIC! So good, especially if you tie it back to my favorite WoR quote "Honor is dead but I'll see what I can do." (And making me think of some theories) "“You’re good enough for me.” That Tien scene made me bawl. 5
Inkspren_K she/her Posted January 23, 2021 Posted January 23, 2021 Quote "It will," Wit said, "but then it will get better. Then it will get worse again. Then better. This is life, and I will not lie by saying every day will be sunshine. But there will be sunshine again, and that is a very different thing to say. That is truth. I promise you Kaladin: You will be warm again." Quote "Extinction is the natural escalation of this war...If you forget why you are fighting, then victory itself becomes the goal. The longer we fight, the more detached we become. Both from our own minds, and from our original Passions." They're a bit longer, but I like the thoughtfulness of both quotes, and these are the ones that stuck with me. 5
Sara Stormblessed Posted January 28, 2021 Posted January 28, 2021 (edited) First: Quote Szeth-son-Honor tried to slouch. ...Dalinar said Szeth prowled when he walked, and was too intense when standing at watch. ... How did one stop being intense? Szeth tried to understand this as he forced himself to lean against a tree... ....tried to at least appear relaxed. It was difficult, requiring vigilance and dedication, but he did not want to be chastised by Dalinar again. Second: The whole of The Dog and the Dragon chapter. That chapter is a perfect combination of darkness, humor, and heartwarming takeaways The resonating darkness: Spoiler Quote “And if all of this is too much for me?” Kaladin asked. “If I can’t keep fighting? If I just … stop? Give up?” “Are you close to that?” “Yes,” Kaladin whispered. My laugh-out-loud moment: Quote “Wit?” Kaladin finally said. “Do you … maybe have a story you could tell me?” Wit froze, spoon in his mouth. He stared at Kaladin, lowering his hand, leaving the spoon between his lips—before eventually opening his mouth to stare slack-jawed, the spoon falling into his waiting hand. “What?” Kaladin asked. “Why are you so surprised?” “Well,” Wit said, recovering. “It’s simply that … I’ve been waiting for someone to actually ask! The heartwarming take away: Quote A little light, a little warmth, a little fire and he felt ready to walk out into the winds again. 1.28.2021 EDIT: I changed my mind. Instead of the whole of The Dog and The Dragon, this is my second favorite quote: Second: Quote "You can kill me, but you can’t have what I have. You can never have it. Because I die knowing I’m loved.” I chose this one because this quote is so important for the readers to be able to let go of this beloved character. Edited January 29, 2021 by Sara Stormblessed 4
