People see in stories what they’re looking for, my young friend.
Brandon Sanderson
Oh, I’m just a happy person.
Brandon Sanderson
Well, then, he said. Let's do it. What? Vin asked. Save the world. Elend said. Stop the ash.
Brandon Sanderson
If you don't believe what I'm telling you, then ask yourself this: would any decent, kind-hearted individual become a writer? Of course not.
Brandon Sanderson
So, using his pride like a shield against despair, dejection, and-most important— self-pity, Raoden raised his head to stare damnation in the eyes.
Brandon Sanderson
Do not deride someone's faith simply because you do not share it, Lord Cladent, Sazed said quietly.
Brandon Sanderson
We follow the codes not because they bring gain, but because we loathe the people we would otherwise become.
Brandon Sanderson

Brandon Sanderson
A thing of nature. For every Push, there is a Pull. A consequence.
Brandon Sanderson

Brandon Sanderson
You're a very difficult person to manipulate, you know. Nonsense, he said. You just have to promise me that I won't have to do a thing, and then I'll do anything you want. Anything? Anything that doesn't require doing anything. That's nothing, then. Is it? Yes. Well, that's something.
Brandon Sanderson
I think given the choice between loving Mare - betrayal included - and never knowing her, I'd chose love. I risked, and I lost, but the risk was still worth it.
Brandon Sanderson
I want you to go back into the barrack and tell the men to come out after the storm. Tell them to look up at me tied here. Tell them I’ll open my eyes and look back at them, and they’ll know hat I survived.
Brandon Sanderson
My name is Stephen Leeds, and I am perfectly sane. My hallucinations, however, are all quite mad.
Brandon Sanderson
The motivations of men. They never make sense. And they always make sense.
Brandon Sanderson
I will protect those who cannot protect themselves.
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
A person knows when they’re in darkness, even when they can’t see. -Nightblood
