“And when you say the truth you get stronger.”
“There is a rule for fantasy writers: The more truth you mix in with a lie, the stronger it gets.”
“You understand... just what the Taoists mean when they say that soft is stronger than hard.”
“When you are around people who are really suffering, you get to experience some of their suffering and that can make you stronger in your faith.”
“And you know that when the truth is told that you can get what you want or you can just get old.”
“People say, That which doesn't kill you makes you stronger. But they are wrong. What doesn't kill you doesn't kill you. That's all you get. Sometimes, you just have to hope that's enough.”
