"Let me tell you about the difference between you and me. It's like the story of the monkey trying to capture the moon. However close he thinks he is to the moon, it's still just the reflection of the moon in the middle of the lake. No matter how he struggles to capture that "moon", he inevitably sinks to the bottom of that lake to no avail. You will never reach me."

"You and I, our levels are as distant as the earth from the heavens. Must I spell it out for you? I have discarded my left arm, discarded my left leg, and yet even then I have not nearly lowered myself to your level."

"Remember that a sword held by someone who is about to die… will never be able to protect anything."

"Any betrayal you can see is trivial, what is truly frightening and much more lethal, is the betrayal you cannot see."

There is no such thing as "truth" or "lies" in this world; there never has been. There are only plain, hard facts. And yet, all beings who exist in this world acknowledge only those "facts" that are convenient to them, and take them to be the "truth". They do so because they know no other way of living. However, for those powerless beings who comprise the majority of this world's population, inconvenient facts that affirm their very existence, are their only truth."

All creatures want to believe in something bigger than themselves. They cannot live without blind obedience. And to escape the pressure of that trust, those in whom faith is placed in turn look for someone higher than themselves. And then those people in turn look for someone even stronger. That is how all Kings are born. That is how all Gods are born."

"I had no intention of deceiving anyone. It's just that none of you could understand...My true self."

"Fear is necessary for evolution. The fear that could be destroyed at any moment."

"Fear is necessary for evolution. The fear that could be destroyed at any moment."

Someone literally JUST recommended that series to me last night because we were talking about The Wheel Of Time and Id never read a series that was completely Brandon Sanderson.

SolitaryLark

All his stuff is great but that one’s BIG. I generally don’t recommend it as a first Brandon book myself. But if you read wheel of time it’s probably something you’d like.

A little bit of Dostoevsky for ya. "There are things which a man is afraid to tell even to himself, and every decent man has a number of such things stored away in his mind." "Above all, dont lie to yourself. The man who lies to himself and listens to his own lie comes to a point where he can no longer distinguish the truth within him or around him, and so loses all respect for himself and others. And having no respect, he ceases to live." "It takes more than intelligence to act intelligently." "Much unhappiness has come into the world because of bewilderment and things left unsaid." "Beauty is mysterious as well as terrible. God and the devil are fighting there and the battlefield is the heart of man."
