    “Someday, Locke Lamora,” he said, “someday, you’re going to fuck up so magnificently, so ambitiously, so overwhelmingly that the sky will light up and the moons will spin and the gods themselves will shit comets with glee. And I just hope I’m still around to see it.”
    “Oh please,” said Locke. “It’ll never happen.”
    Scott Lynch, The Lies of Locke Lamora

    "Bug," Calo said, "Locke is our brother and our love for him knows no bounds. But the four most fatal words in the Therin language are 'Locke would appreciate it.'"

    "The only person who gets away with Locke Lamora games ..."

    “I've got kids that enjoy stealing. I've got kids that don't think about stealing one way or the other, and I've got kids that just tolerate stealing because they know they've got nothing else to do. But nobody--and I mean nobody--has ever been hungry for it like this boy. If he had a bloody gash across his throat and a physiker was trying to sew it up, Lamora would steal the needle and thread and die laughing. He...steals too much.”
    Scott Lynch, The Lies of Locke Lamora

    “Vous me compliquez la vie avec votre rancœur, nous devons impérativement nous réconcilier. Je n'ai pas le droit de pénétrer dans le gynécée : retrouvez-moi à l'intendance, insultez-moi, giflez-moi, cassez-moi une assiette sur la tête si ça vous chante, et puis n'en parlons plus.”

    Brandon Sanderson
    “The most important words a man can say are, “I will do better.” These are not the most important words any man can say. I am a man, and they are what I needed to say.

    The ancient code of the Knights Radiant says “journey before destination.” Some may call it a simple platitude, but it is far more. A journey will have pain and failure. It is not only the steps forward that we must accept. It is the stumbles. The trials. The knowledge that we will fail. That we will hurt those around us.

    But if we stop, if we accept the person we are when we fall, the journey ends. That failure becomes our destination. To love the journey is to accept no such end. I have found, through painful experience, that the most important step a person can take is always the next one.

    I’m certain some will feel threatened by this record. Some few may feel liberated. Most will simply feel that it should not exist. I needed to write it anyway.”
    Brandon Sanderson, Oathbringer
