New favourite quotes!!

[NerdyAarakocra They/Them]

"This is life, and I will not lie by saying every day will be sunshine. But there will be sunshine again, and that is a very different thing to say. That is truth. I promise you, Kaladin: You will be warm again."

- Wit

[SymphonianBookworm she/her]

I have a lot...

...most of them are insults from Wit. 

There is the “I hid your honor in a place you could never find it: in the arms of someone who truly loves you.”

also, the “An uneducated, half-brained serving boy with a hangover could make mock of you.”

Spoiler

Also, the scene in the Mistborn Saga where Wit becomes Wax’s coachman .

[Lament on the Wind she/her]

'Good people are like candles.They burn themselves up to give others light.'-Syl(she's a sweetheart)

[Letryx13]

Honestly, I have too many to keep track of.  But here are three of mine.

Kaladin; "If I kill  a man, I'm going to do it in the sunlight, and I'm going to do it only because there is no other way."

Shallan; "I'm sure you were quite brave,"..."Though, probably not as brave as the poor men who have to clean your armor."

Pattern; "No mating!"
 

[Morningtide she/her]

"A surgeon must be timely and precise."

Stormlight 5 prologue spoiler

"Give it to me. Now. I need it." 

"Brother, find the most important words a man can say" (or something that is very similar to that)

I know I'm necro-ing, sorry. But... I have no memory of this line. I really like it, but have no memory of it. And I think I would, considering how often I randomly reread Stormlight books, especially Kaladin's parts...

I'd think I'd remember it. So if you remember where it is, would you be so good as to enlighten me?

It is probably an unmarked spoiler from the SA5 preview material. At least a text search through WoK, WoR, ED, OB, DS, and RoW didn't find it.

Although, I guess it could also be some odd translation change from a non-English edition back to English.

“This is a hill that I will be willing to — maybe not die on — but at least take a few stabs upon”- Brandon Sanderson

edit: whoops, I think I misunderstood the thread. I was searching for a quote thread to put this quote in and this one came up. Now I see that this is in the Stormlight subforum. Sorry

Thing is... I've read those too. And I googled the sentence and it was a Turkish proverb...

I saw it on a little drawing of Syl online somewhere, and it was a picture of her with that quote. So I guess it's a Mandela effect. Sort of like how Shallan never said exactly "But you could be fire"...

"Honor is dead, but I'll see what I can do".

[Epicdaf]

"I'm a stick"!

[ruler of the mists He/His/the survivor of the pit]

wit speaking to Kaladin about the flow of life and when Kaladin swears the third ideal.

[Highprince645343]

“You’ve killed me. Bastards, you’ve killed me! While the sun is still hot, I die!”

My favorite death rattle, it's still mostly unsolved, my best guess is that the dying person realized they were being killed? But what does the sun being hot have to do with that?
