More quotes by George R. R. Martin
The man is as useless as nipples on a breastplate.
George R. R. Martin
And all was black and still, and black and cold, and black and dead, and black.
George R. R. Martin
Fantasy is silver and scarlet, indigo and azure, obsidian veined with gold and lapis lazuli. Reality is plywood and plastic, done up in mud brown and olive drab. Fantasy tastes of habaneros and honey, cinnamon and cloves, rare red meat and wines as sweet as summer. Reality is beans and tofu, and ashes at the end.
George R. R. Martin
Sometimes he could almost forget that it was there, the way you forget about the sky or the earth underfoot, but there were other times when it seemed as if there was nothing else in the world.
George R. R. Martin
In the songs all knights are gallant, all maids are beautiful, and the sun is always shining.
George R. R. Martin
Tears, she said scornfully to Sansa as the woman was led from the hall. The woman's weapon, my lady mother used to call them. The man's weapon is a sword. And that tells us all you need to know, doesn't it?
George R. R. Martin
The only time a man can be brave is when he is afraid.
George R. R. Martin
One of your northmen hit me with a morningstar during the battle on the Green Fork. I escaped him by falling off my horse. (Tyrion)
George R. R. Martin
I never wanted to see half the things I've seen, and I've never seen half the things I wanted to. I don't think wanting comes into it. You'd best go all the same.
George R. R. Martin
Show me the path I must walk and do not let me stumble in the dark places that lie ahead.
George R. R. Martin
Sweet smells are sometimes used to cover foul ones.
George R. R. Martin
a man who hates music can’t be trusted, I always say.
George R. R. Martin
Don't write outlines I hate outlines.
George R. R. Martin
The distinction between literary and genre fiction is stupid and pernicious. It dates back to a feud between Robert Louis Stevenson and Henry James. James won, and it split literature into two streams. But it's a totally false dichotomy.
George R. R. Martin
O medo corta mais profundamente do que as espadas.
George R. R. Martin
They say night's beauties fade at dawn, and the children of wine are oft disowned in the morning light.
George R. R. Martin
Spikes, he sighed. Heads. Walls.
George R. R. Martin
But my philosophy is that plot advancement is not what the experience of reading fiction is about. If all we care about is advancing the plot, why read novels? We can just read Cliffs Notes.
George R. R. Martin
A man could not always be where he belonged, though.
George R. R. Martin
No fight is hopeless till it has been fought.
