Hay que ser valiente para admitir que te equivocabas.
Christopher PaoliniDünya yuvarlak," dedi mırıldanarak. "Gökyüzünün içi boş ve dünya yuvarlak."
bu bilgi aklındaki herşeyi yeniden değerlendirmesine ve yeniden sınıflandırmasına neden olmuştu... hemen herşeyi. Dünyanın gerçek ölçüleriyle karşılaştırınca bir çok acıların ve insaanları üzen dertlerin ne kadar ıvır zıvır şeyler olduğunu farketmişti.
Çünkü gökyüzü bir boşluktu ve dünya yuvarlaktı.
He who stands like a pilar dies in battle. He who bends like a reed is triumphant!
Christopher PaoliniI agree that it's important to be of a virtuous nature, but I would also contend that if you had to choose between giving a man a noble disposition or teaching him to think clearly, you'd do better to teach him to think clearly. Too many problems in this world are caused by men with noble dispositions and clouded minds.
Christopher Paolinilet no one rule your mind or body. Take special care that your thoughts remain unfettered. One may be a free man and yet be bound tighter than a slave. Give men your ear, but not your heart. Show respect for those in power, but don’t follow them blindly. Judge with logic and reason, but comment not

Eragon - Wisdom, wisdom is the most important for a person to possess.
Oromis- A fair guess, but, again, no. the answer is logic. Or, to put it another way, the ability to reason analytically.Applied properly it can overcome any lack of wisdom, which one only gains through age and experience.
Eragon - yes but isn't having a good heart more important than logic. pure logic can lead you to conclusions that are ethically wrong, whereas if you are moral and righteous, that will ensure you don't act shamefully.
Oromis - you confuse the issue. All I wanted to know isq what is the most useful 'tool'ma person can have [...] I agree that it is important to be of a virtous nature, but I would also conted that if you had to choose between giving a man a noble disposition or teaching him to think clearly, you'd do better to teach him to think clearly.

Eragon! I never want to hear you use that excuse again, that because someone else has done--or would do--something means that you should too. It's lazy, repugnant, and indicative of an inferior mind. Am I clear?
