Brandon Sanderson
I will protect those who cannot protect themselves.

Brandon Sanderson
Honestly, for an evil god of darkness, he certainly can be dull.
Brandon Sanderson

Brandon Sanderson
Actually, [Wax] said, we came here because we needed someplace safe to think for a few hours. Ranette: Your mansion isn't safe? Wax: My butler failed to poison me, then tried to shoot me, then set off an explosive in my study Ranette: Huh.... You need to screen these people better, Wax.
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
Be warned - Hammond does tend to be a bit optimistic about these kind of things. If the army were made up of one-legged mutes, he would praise their balance and their listening skills.
Brandon Sanderson
If you are anything like me --- Clever, fond of goat cheese, and devilishly handsome --- then you have undoubtedly read many books.
Brandon Sanderson

But…the gun itself belonged to someone dead, so by the same logic—” “Don’t try,” Waxillium said. “Logic doesn’t work on Wayne.” “I bought a ward against it off a traveling fortune-teller,” Wayne explained. “It lets me add two ’n’ two and get a pickle.

Pain los[es] its power when other things bec[o]me more important.
Brandon Sanderson
