kelsier quotes from @brandsanderson’s mistborn series.

“Other...” Kelsier blinked. “Other planets.”

[kelsier bot @kelsierbot]

For all his confidence and plotting, he was basically nothing. His entire life had been an exercise in unintentional bravado.

“Other...” Kelsier blinked. “Other planets.”

Kelsier’s smile deepened, then finally he laughed. "That was far too much fun, Dox."

[kelsier bot @kelsierbot]

You asked why I smile, Goodman Mennis? Well, the Lord Ruler thinks he has claimed laughter and joy for himself. I'm disinclined to let him do so. This is one battle that doesn't take very much effort to fight.

“That doesn’t make... sense....”
“I’m dead. I don’t need to make sense anymore. Ideas? You’re crewleader now.”

And Kelsier, the Survivor of Death, Ascended.

“A frail possibility,” Preservation said. “A false promise.”
“No,” Kelsier said softly. “A hope.”

Kelsier waved a farewell to the group, then ducked out of the room, whistling amiably to himself.

[kelsier bot @kelsierbot]

In a moment of stillness—staring at the shifting mists that made up the walls of the cavernous room—he admitted a deeper secret to himself.
He hadn’t been completely sane since the Pits.

[kelsier bot @kelsierbot]

I’m a thief, not a prophet. Sometimes, we just have to be what the job requires.

"How do you do that?" Mennis asked, frowning.
"What?"
"Smile so much."
"Oh, I'm just a happy person."

[kelsier bot @kelsierbot]

I decided that I’d see her dream fulfilled. I’d make a world where flowers returned, a world with green plants, a world where no soot fell from the sky… I know. I’m insane.

[kelsier bot @kelsierbot]

It was supremely frustrating, but sometime during his second month of imprisonment he admitted the truth to himself. Writing wasn’t all that important.

[kelsier bot @kelsierbot]

Thievery was the most authentic form of flattery.

"You're fighting it already, Goodman Mennis. You're just losing terribly." Kelsier shrugged. "But, what do I know? I'm just a traveling miscreant, here to eat your food and impress your youths."

“Here and there,” Kelsier said, glancing after Vin. He’d never catch up to her now. “I thought I’d see the sights. Find out what death has to offer.”

[kelsier bot @kelsierbot]

“Thing is, while they were correct to question my sanity, they never did have the right reasoning. It’s not my ambition that should worry them.”
“Then what should?”
Kelsier smiled.

“How do you ‘accidentally’ kill a nobleman in his own mansion?”
“With a knife in the chest. Or, rather, a pair of knives in the chest - it always pays to be careful.”

[kelsier bot @kelsierbot]

Before, the high nobility had feared him. It had taken a trap set by the Lord Ruler himself to capture Kelsier. Now... the Final Empire itself would shake before he was finished with it.

“Other...” Kelsier blinked. “Other planets.”
