All PATRICK ROTHFUSS Quotes about “Songs”

“I thought of all the others who had tried to tie her to the ground and failed. So I resisted showing her the songs and poems I had written, knowing that too much truth can ruin a thing. And if that meant she wasn't entirely mine, what of it? I would be the one she could always return to without fear of recrimination or question. So I did not try to win her and contented myself with playing a beautiful game. But there was always a part of me that hoped for more, and so there was a part of me that was always a fool.”
“Someone's parents have been singing entirely the wrong sort of songs.”
“Auri took it, and peered inside the small leather sack. â€œWhy this is lovely, Kvothe. What lives in the salt?â€ Trace minerals, I thought. Chromium, bassal, malium, iodine . . . everything your body needs but probably canâ€™t get from apples and bread and whatever you manage to scrounge up when I canâ€™t find you. â€œThe dreams of fish,â€ I said. â€œAnd sailorâ€™s songs.”
