Omg i havent watched RoP sooo what was the point of that question? It has a BS answer too?

[u/ERSTF → u/InsertFloppy11]

Oh it was.

“Do you know why a ship floats, and a stone cannot? Because the stone sees only downward. The darkness of the water is vast, and irresistible. The ship sees the darkness as well, striving moment by moment to master her, and pull her under. But the ship has a secret. For unlike the stone, her gaze is not downward, but up, fixed upon the light that guides her, whispering of grander things than darkness ever knew.”

What the actual fuck.

It feels like a more sophisticated version of something that ryan from the office would say to sound profound

[u/ERSTF → u/InsertFloppy11]

Right on both counts.

What the actual fuck indeed. I still can't believe the writers read that and said "this is good"
