George R. R. Martin
The Iron Throne is mine by rights. All those who deny that are my foes. The whole of the realm denies it, brother, said Renley. Old men deny it with their death rattle, and unborn children deny it in their mothers' wombs. They deny it in Dorne and they deny it on the Wall. No one wants you for their king. Sorry.
George R. R. Martin
When the sun rises in the west and sets in the east, she said sadly. When the seas go dry and mountains blow in the wind like leaves. When my womb quickens again, and I bear a living child. Then you will return, my sun-and-stars, and not before. -Daenerys Targaryen
George R. R. Martin
