Dalinar said softly. “I see your hatred still. Hopefully not for anyone specific—but for what has been done to you. In the last years, I’ve been forced to accept that the distinction between lighteyes and dark is one of pure social construction. Nobility is not of the blood, but of the heart. But it must go the other way too. You don’t like what we represent, but to continue feeling as you do… it will eat you from the inside.”
Once again, Kaladin is the only one specifically asked by the narrative to put aside his prejudices 🙄

Wind and Truth and Disappointment
i am just deeply disappointed in this book. When he was writing at his best, and really conveying the emotions of his characters, he did brilliant work. But so much felt flat, and forced, and upended so much of what I would expect the characters we knew to do in this sort of scenario.
Kaladin disappointed me most.
He seemed like an entirely different person. I understand that his 4th ideal freed him from some of his trauma around feeling responsible for everyone else's safety. But he just seemed so removed from his friends and family. Like leaving right before a potential world ending conflict while his loved ones are at the epicenter of the fight is no big deal.
I just can't see this as the same character. If he had to leave, he would have been riddled with worry for his brother and parents. Wondered about Bridge Four and whether they were safe. Struggled with all of this.
It just didn't feel like him. And the ending he had severs most of the bonds he had permanently.
The whole reason I loved this series was the connection between characters, found family, emotions as a form of strength. Wind and Truth had so little of this, outside of Adolin's chapters.
I am going to try to accept all of this, but it will take some time. I just don't think I will enjoy the series nearly as much without these aspects.
Kaladin died for me, sometime after RoW. The character he was was just so profoundly different. Not the suffering and depression, but the intensity of his love and loyalty. Now, he seems fine, but hollow.

Shallan watched him count the Windrunners, do the calculations in his mind, and come to the same conclusion.
Almost.
“How many of you,” Adolin said, “will it take to fly my horse home?”

When Navani and the Sibling are talking about whether she's enslaving spren and whether it's okay I wish the story would acknowledge that she was fine being queen of a kingdom that enslaves humans.

“I’ve got to go. Biden wants me to try to find Jesus, who has apparently gone mad. Not surprising, considering how Buddha and Krishna are fairing”

Adolin Kholin saved an entire nation armed with nothing but a candelabra, trans rights, and the power of being nice. Character of all time.

The sun could love the stars. But never as an equal.
Damn
People say that Sanderson’s preference for writing simple prose shows that he’s not a very talented writer but lines like this show me that he’s capable of getting more literary when he wants to
Cuz this? The layered meaning? *chefs kiss*
Its got everything:
Gavilar being confidently misinformed about the basic realities of the universe
His arrogance in thinking himself so much better than others
Not realizing that other stars might be bigger and brighter than the sun if you just got close enough to them
Gavilar consistently missing how important/powerful the people around him are
Gavilar being an asshole
