“She felt less like a mere human being, and more like a human who was merely being.”
Brandon Sanderson, Tress of the Emerald Sea

“he was six and a half feet tall and had a jaw so straight it made other men question if they were.”
Brandon Sanderson, Tress of the Emerald Sea

“The past is boring anyway. We always pretend the ideals and culture of the past have aged like wine, but in truth, the ideas of the past tend to age more like biscuits. They simply get stale.”
Brandon Sanderson, Tress of the Emerald Sea

Brandon Sanderson
“Memory is often our only connection to who we used to be. Memories are fossils, the bones left by dead versions of ourselves. More potently, our minds are a hungry audience, craving only the peaks and valleys of experience. The bland erodes, leaving behind the distinctive bits to be remembered again and again. Painful or passionate, surreal or sublime, we cherish those little rocks of peak experience, polishing them with the ever-smoothing touch of recycled proxy living. In so doing—like pagans praying to a sculpted mud figure—we make of our memories the gods which judge our current lives.”
Brandon Sanderson, Tress of the Emerald Sea
