More From Bertrand Russell

Of all the recruits in his cohort, he had learned the quickest. how to hold the spear, how to stand to spar. he’d done it almost without instruction. that had shocked tukks. but why should it have? you were not shocked when a child knew how to breathe. you were not shocked when a skyeel took flight for the first time. you should not be shocked when you hand kaladin stormblessed a spear and he knows how to use it.

I am not religious, but i am a pious man... a religious man has a definite religion. he says "god is there" or "god is there," "god is there." "your god is not my god, and that's all." but the pious man, he just looks out with awe, and says, "where is god?" and "well, i don't understand it and i would like to know what this creation really means." that is a pious man, who is really touched by the greatness of nature and of the creation.
Religious Mean Greatness

People get sick and sometimes they get better and sometimes they don't. and it doesn't matter if the sickness is cancer or if it's depression. sometimes the drugs work and sometimes they don't. sometimes the drugs work for a while and then they stop. sometimes the alternative stuff works and sometimes it doesn't. and sometimes you wonder if no outside interference makes any difference at all; if an illness is like a storm, if it simply has to run its course and, at the end of it, depending on how robust you are, you will be alive. or you will be dead.
