Rhythm of War (The Stormlight Archive, #4)

by Brandon Sanderson

“ ‘War is the last option of the state that has failed,’ ” Adolin said, tapping the side with the divine robed figure. He pushed it to spin it in Kaladin’s fingers, showing the other side. “ ‘But it is better than having no options.’ ”

“It will,” Wit said, “but then it will get better. Then it will get worse again. Then better. This is life, and I will not lie by saying 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.”

“Honor is not dead so long as he lives in the hearts of men!”
