“Expectations were like fine pottery. The harder you held them, the more likely they were to crack.”
― Brandon Sanderson, The Way of Kings

“Turned out that the end of the world had to actually arrive before people would take it seriously.”
― Brandon Sanderson, Oathbringer

“The purpose of a storyteller is not to tell you how to think, but to give you questions to think upon.”
― Brandon Sanderson, The Way of Kings

“But it’s not a matter of morality, is it? It’s a matter of thresholds. How many guilty may be punished before you’d accept one innocent casualty? A thousand? Ten thousand? A hundred?

And so … I must hang all four men.” He paused. “And I would weep, every night, for having done it.”
― Brandon Sanderson, Oathbringer
