"You cannot have my pain."

"It hurts so much, but I did it. I accept that."
"Dalinar," Odium said. "What do you hope to gain, keeping this burden?"
[..]
"If I pretend... If I pretend I didn't do those things, it means that I can't have grown to become someone else."
"A failure."
[..]
"I will take responsibility for what I have done," Dalinar whispered. "If I must fall, I will rise each time a better man."

"Weird," Pattern said. [...]
"I guess neither of us technically have eyes. We're each a bit of power made manifest. We honorspren mimic Honor himself. You Cryptics mimic... Weird stuff?"

Men he loved, killing each other. Awful, terrifying perspective.
He could see too many sides. Parshmen angry ar being enslaved for years, attempting to overthrow a corrupt government. Alethi protecting their homes from invading monsters. Elhokar trying to save his son. The palace guards trying to keep their oaths.
Too many eyes to see through. Too many emotions. Where these his only two options? Pain or oblivion?

"I used to take the terrible things that had happened to me," he said, "as proof that there was no god. Then in some of my darkest moments, I took my life as proof there must be something up there, for only intentional cruelty could offer an explanation."
Please Brandon, please give this man a break :(

I love Wit.
"Yes, yes. Aim for the sun. That way if you miss, at least your arrow will fall far away, and the person it kills will likely be someone you don't know."

"But it (stupidity) can be hard to spot, as - like body odor - you never notice your own. That said - put two smart people together, and they will eventually find their common stupidity, and in so doing become idiots."
