Quotes from the Stormlight archive that keep me going

“The most important words a man can say are ‘I will do better’”

“The most important step a man can take is the next one”

“It will [get worse]. But then it will get better. Then it will get worse again. Then better. This is life, and I will not lie by saying that 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” (also just the entire Dog and Dragon stuff)

“Journey before destination,” Dalinar said. “It cannot be a journey if it doesn’t have a beginning … I will take responsibility for what I have done,” Dalinar whispered. “If I must fall, I will rise each time a better man.”

And, of course

“Life before Death. Strength Before Weakness. Journey Before Destination.”

#these quotes largely talk about men #and I’m not a man #but there is still a part of me that identifies with that kind of …#honor?#valor?#idk #the stormlight archive #stormlight archive #brandon sanderson #cosmere #kaladin #kaladin stormblessed #dalinar kholin #100*

Is being critical of Sabine’s force sensitivity ‘gatekeeping’ the force or it is about how it undermines the established magic system and was not well written?

I’ll give you a clue it’s the second one.

#Ahsoka critical #saw a post about this and I absolutely value the sentiment that the force shouldn’t be ‘gatekept’ BUT #as a writer I cannot abide by the execution #the character arc was not set up or executed effectively #if it had been foreshadowed ok #if it had been better executed maybe #but ultimately the mandalorian identity is integral to her character and the change would take a lot of writing work #can be done but yeah it’s drastic #as Brandon Sanderson would say:#“a writers ability to solve problems by magic is directly proportional to how well the reader understands said magic”#quoted off the top of my head but yeah #taught my 8yr old sister this recently #she gets it #filoni why’s it so hard for u huh #Star Wars critical #pro jedi #bc I like these guys #ahsoka series #Star Wars #do I dare tag Star Wars? yes I do

Men often described the girl as having hair the color of wheat. Others called it the color of caramel, or occasionally the color of honey. The girl wondered why men so often used food to describe women's features. There was a hunger to such men that was best avoided.
