Quote by Brandon Sanderson

“He got out a sapphire mark for light, avoiding pools of water strewn with bones. A skull protruded from one, wavy green moss growing across the scalp like hair, lifespren bobbing above. Perhaps it should have felt eerie to walk through these darkened slots alone, but they didn’t bother Kaladin. This was a sacred place, the sarcophagus of the lowly, the burial cavern of bridgemen and spearmen who died upon lighteyed edicts, spilling blood down the sides of these ragged walls. This place wasn’t eerie; it was holy.”

“Va ser llavors que em vaig fixar en un blau que tenia just per sota del genoll. Ja l’havia vist abans, però en aquell moment el seu to porpra, que en una de les vores virava cap al verd grogós, va atreure els meus ulls, com si aquesta petita ferida fos realment el tema del quadre. M’hi vaig atansar, vaig posar un dit a la tela i vaig resseguir el contorn del blau. Aquest gest em va excitar. Em vaig girar per mirar l’Erica. Era un dia càlid de setembre, i ella tenia els braços descoberts. Em vaig inclinar i li vaig besar les pigues de les espatlles, i en acabat li vaig enretirar els cabells que li cobrien el coll i vaig besar la pell suau de sota. Em vaig agenollar davant seu, li vaig apujar la roba de la faldilla, li vaig passar els dits per les cuixes, i llavors vaig fer servir la llengua.”

“...I listened to you say that we are all - Jana'ata and Runa and H'uman - children of a God so high that our ranks and our differences are as nothing in his far sight." ... " I thought then that this was merely a song sung by a foreigner to a foolish girl who believed nonsense. ... I was willing to hear this song, because I had once yearned for a world in which lives would be governed not by lineage and lust and moribund law, but by love and loyalty. In this one valley, such lives are possible, she said, "If it is a mistake to hope for such a world, then it is a magnificent mistake.”
