More quotes by Brandon Sanderson
My job is not to save 'The Wheel of Time', to fix 'The Wheel of Time', or anything like that. My job is not to screw it up.
Brandon Sanderson
I was thinking that work is like fertilizer in that I'm glad it exists I just don't ever want to get stuck in it.
Brandon Sanderson
Every man is a hero of his own story.

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
I will protect those who cannot protect themselves.
Brandon Sanderson
Must someone, some unseen thing, declare what is right for it to be right? I believe that my own morality - which answers only to my heart - is more sure and true than the morality of those who do right only because they fear retribution.

Brandon Sanderson
Ham shook his head, sitting down, pouring himself something to drink. I don't get it, El. Why'd she attack him? She's loony, Spook said.
Brandon Sanderson
Remember, despite the fact that this book is being sold as a 'fantasy' novel, you must take all of the things it says extremely seriously, as they are quite important, are in no way silly, and always make sense. Rutabaga.
Brandon Sanderson
...A man can only stumble for so long before he either falls or stands up straight.
Brandon Sanderson
Start writing the things that you are reading or that you want to be published doing.
Brandon Sanderson
Have you finally grown so jealous of my impeccable fashion sense that you've decided to have me disposed of?
Brandon Sanderson
Lately, I feel like my life is a book written in a language I don't know how to read.
Brandon Sanderson
Once one becomes a man, he can and must make his own decisions. But I do offer warning. Even a good thing can become destructive if taken to excess.
Brandon Sanderson
You know, I was a nerdy kid going through high school, and then I got to college and that all vanished. I mean, a lot of my good friends - when we were in high school, we would never have been able to hang out together because we were in such different cliques or whatever. Now, who cares?
Brandon Sanderson
This is going to take a while. I'm a fantasy author. We have trouble with the concept of brevity.
