We were like deaf people trying to dance to a beat we couldn’t hear, long after the music actually stopped Picture Quote #1

... reading was hardly as practical a skill as being able to handle a dagger or use Allomancy? Picture Quote #1

Why did they believe? Because they saw miracles. Things one man took as chance, a man of faith took as a sign. A loved one recovering from disease, a fortunate business deal, a chance meeting with a long lost friend.

It’s actually a rather romantic and dramatic story --- one I would eagerly tell you, except for the fact that I recently forgot it, based on it being far too long and having not enough decapitations Picture Quote #1

If you perpetuate the dreams of the past, you stifle your own dreams of the future Picture Quote #1

What is belief - what is faith - if you don’t continue it after failure? Picture Quote #1

They say a man doesn’t know himself until he faces death for the first time... I don’t know about that.
