I am a Smedry, and we do ridiculous, unexpected, eccentric things like this all the time! Ha-ha!

Brandon Sanderson
About This Quote

A Smedry is a person who is so unoriginal and so uninteresting that the only way they can stand out among the rest of us is by doing something ridiculous. They are the kind of people who start a revolution, or a war, or destroy a city by accident. They are the ones who come up with all the crazy ideas that everyone else is afraid to do, because it will be too obvious if they do it. In case you didn’t get it from the title, this quote is from “Sorcerer’s Holiday,” by Brandon Sanderson.
