More quotes by Brandon Sanderson
Have you finally grown so jealous of my impeccable fashion sense that you've decided to have me disposed of?
Brandon Sanderson
Remember, the past need not become our future as well.
Brandon Sanderson
So, there I was, tied to an altar made from outdated encyclopedias, about to get sacrificed to the dark powers by a cult of evil Librarians.
Brandon Sanderson
Mocking a woman is like drinking too much wine. It may be fun for a short time, but the hangover is hell.
Brandon Sanderson
I'm Teoish, Sarene said, successfully spearing something that looked like a marinated piece of shrimp. We're all this tall. Father's Teoish too, Kaise, Daorn said. And you know how tall he is. But father's fat, Kaise pointed out. Why aren't you fat too, Sarene?
Brandon Sanderson
My name is Stephen Leeds, and I am perfectly sane. My hallucinations, however, are all quite mad.
Brandon Sanderson
You people are all insane. How I ended up with you, I'll never know. Breeze laughed. Now, that's a lie, Cett. You know exactly how you ended up joining with us. We threatened to kill you if you didn't!
Brandon Sanderson
Faith isn't about logic, son, Haddek said. Perhaps that's your problem. You cannot 'disprove' the things you study, any more than we can prove to you that the Hero will save us. We simply must believe it, and accept the things Preservation has taught us.
Brandon Sanderson
It's a mystery, Vin said, narrowing her eyes and smiling. We Mistborn are incredibly mysterious. Elend paused. Um...I'm Mistborn too, Vin. That doesn't make any sense. We Mistborn need not make sense, Vin said. It's beneath us. Come on-the sun's already down. We need to get moving.
Brandon Sanderson
I still doubt it will work. You'd doubt the sun's rising if you weren't proven wrong each day, Raoden said with a smile.
Brandon Sanderson
Definitely not-you optimists just can't understand that a depressed person doesn't want you to try and cheer them up.It makes us sick. Brandon Sanderson(Elantris)
Brandon Sanderson
A person knows when they’re in darkness, even when they can’t see. -Nightblood
Brandon Sanderson
You are inexperienced. So was I, once. So is every man. The measure of a person is not how much they have lived. . . It's in how they make us of what life has shown them.
Brandon Sanderson
It is you! the man exclaimed. We thought you weren't coming for another week! Ashe, Sarene mumbled, who is this lunatic and what does he want with me?
Brandon Sanderson
Fantasy has had some problems with being too repetitive, in my opinion. I try to read what other people are doing - and say, 'How can I add to this rather than just recycle it? How can I stand on Tolkien's shoulders rather than stand tied to his kneecaps?
Brandon Sanderson
Small things were important. Secods were small things, and if you heaped enough of those on top of one another, they became a man's life.
Brandon Sanderson
Well, then, he said. Let's do it. What? Vin asked. Save the world. Elend said. Stop the ash.
Brandon Sanderson
To lack feeling is to be dead, but to act on every feeling is to be a child.
Brandon Sanderson
In the end, I worry that my arrogance shall destroy us all.
Brandon Sanderson
What did it mean to be called “lord”? I’ll assume you’ve never had the honor, since I doubt any of you happen to be British royalty. (And, if by chance you are, then let me say, “Hello, Your Majesty! Welcome to my stupid book. Can I borrow some cash?”)
