“Trauma doesn’t decrease with company, but it does grow easier to work through when you know someone else understands.”
― Brandon Sanderson, Yumi and the Nightmare Painter

“A person without ambition is not a person but a ghost. For without purpose, what are you?”
― Saara El-Arifi, The Battle Drum

“Loyal wazir, one cannot know the outcome of a journey if one is not brave enough to take it.”
― Chelsea Abdullah, The Stardust Thief

“You think that kid who starved didn’t want to eat? You think her parents didn’t want to escape the ravages of war badly enough? You think if they’d had more Passion, the cosmere would have saved them? How convenient to believe that people are poor because they didn’t care enough about being rich. That they just didn’t pray hard enough. So convenient to make suffering their own fault, rather than life being unfair and birth mattering more than aptitude. Or storming Passion.”
― Brandon Sanderson, Wind and Truth
