Vin snorted, kneeling in the low tent as she pulled her belt tight then she crawled over to him. I don't know how you read while riding, she said. Oh, it's quite easy - if you aren't afraid of horses. I'm not afraid of them, Vin said. They just don't like me. They know I can outrun them, and that makes them surly.

Men had always told Kaladin that he fought like nobody else. He’d felt it on the first day he’d picked up a quarterstaff, though Tukks’s advice had helped him refine and channel what he could do. Kaladin had cared when he fought. He’d never fought empty or cold. He fought to keep his men alive
Brandon Sanderson

Brandon Sanderson
...somehow the old philosophers could make even the most salacious topics seem boring.
Brandon Sanderson
I never wanted to be feared. If I regret one thing, it is the fear I have caused. Fear is the tool of tyrants. Unfortunately, when the fate of the world is in question, you use whatever tools are available.
Brandon Sanderson
The best liars are those who tell the truth most of the time.
Brandon Sanderson
Vin shook her head. No, not me. I'm not a good person or a bad person. I'm just here to kill things. OreSeur watched her for a moment, then settled back down. Regardless, he said, you are not my worst master. That is, perhaps, a compliment among our people.
Brandon Sanderson
Yes, Bastille. I keep trying to get killed because it's inconvenient for you.
Brandon Sanderson
Start writing the things that you are reading or that you want to be published doing.
Brandon Sanderson
