Once one becomes a man, he can and must make his own decisions. But I do offer warning. Even a good thing can become destructive if taken to excess.
Brandon Sanderson
Image
Good men don't become legends, he said quietly. Good men don't need to become legends. She opened her eyes, looking up at him. They just do what's right anyway.

He smiled despite the grief he felt at the deaths of his men he smiled because that was what he did. That was how he proved to the Lord Ruler-and to himself-that he wasn't beaten.

Small things were important. Secods were small things, and if you heaped enough of those on top of one another, they became a man's life.

Faith isn't about logic, son, Haddek said. Perhaps that's your problem. You cannot 'disprove' the things you study, any more than we can prove to you that the Hero will save us. We simply must believe it, and accept the things Preservation has taught us.
