jag funderar till och med på att icke besöka alla tre fyra fem student kalas jag borde visitera imorgon och på söndag, utan istället idka intim tid med Kvothe.
ja, jag kan inte stressa det här tillräckligt, denna bok är som inget annat jag läst. men å andra sidan är jag kanske lite väl lättflörtad när det gäller fantasy böcker! inget jag visste om mej själv, förrän jag tog tag i game of thrones boken för kanske två år sen.
här kommer nu ett ganska långt utdrag ur boken, så du kan gott hoppa över det om du vill. men jag tycker att det var så....tja. jag vet inte. den talade till mej, och jag läste just den här lilla text biten om och om igen.
“Perhaps the greatest faculty our minds possess is the ability to cope with pain. Classic thinking teaches us of the four doors of the mind, which everyone moves through according to their need.
First is the door of sleep. Sleep offers us a retreat from the world and all its pain. Sleep marks passing time, giving us distance from the things that have hurt us. When a person is wounded they will often fall unconscious. Similarly, someone who hears traumatic news will often swoon or faint. This is the mind's way of protecting itself from pain by stepping through the first door.
Second is the door of forgetting. Some wounds are too deep to heal, or too deep to heal quickly. In addition, many memories are simply painful, and there is no healing to be done. The saying 'time heals all wounds' is false. Time heals most wounds. The rest are hidden behind this door.
Third is the door of madness. There are times when the mind is dealt such a blow it hides itself in insanity. While this may not seem beneficial, it is. There are times when reality is nothing but pain, and to escape that pain the mind must leave reality behind.
Last is the door of death. The final resort. Nothing can hurt us after we are dead, or so we have been told.”
läs boken. bara gör det.
