“All people must accept that we have the potential to do terrible things. It is part of seeing our place in the universe, our heritage, and our natures. But in that acceptance we gain strength, for potential can be refused. Any hero who could have been a monster is more heroic for the choices he or she made to walk another road.”
― Brandon Sanderson, Cytonic

“It's easy to believe in something when you win all the time...The losses are what define a man's faith.”
― Brandon Sanderson, The Well of Ascension

“We may feel in control, but we never truly are unless we understand people. Controlling our environment is no longer about blocking the wind, it’s about knowing why the serving lady was crying last night, or why a particular guard always loses at cards. Or why your employer hired you in the first place.”
― Brandon Sanderson, The Emperor's Soul

“Weißt du, was passiert, wenn man sich immer alle Türen offen hält? Dann zieht’s, mein Freund. Dann wird man krank.”
― Marc-Uwe Kling
