“Death does not bow to each person who passes her, does not sweep out her arm respectfully to show the way, speaks no profound words, unlocks no bolts. The key upon her chest is never needed, for the Last Door stands always open. She herds the dead through impatiently, heedless of rank or fame or quality. She has an ever-lengthening queue to get through. A blind procession, inexhaustible.”
― Joe Abercrombie, Half a King

“There’s nothing gained in lamenting what never was.”
― Peter V. Brett, The Desert Spear

“Love wasn’t about being right or wrong, but about standing up and helping when your partner’s back was bowed.”
― Brandon Sanderson, Oathbringer

“But merely being tradition does not make something worthy, Kadash. We can't just assume that because something is old it is right.”
― Brandon Sanderson, Oathbringer
