More quotes by George R. R. Martin
Sam loved to listen to music and make his own songs, to wear soft velvets, to play in the castle kitchen beside the cooks, drinking in the rich smells as he snitched lemon cakes and blueberry tarts. His passions were books and kittens and dancing, clumsy as he was.
George R. R. Martin
This is the bravo’s dance, the water dance, swift and sudden. All men are made of water, do you know this? When you pierce them, the water leaks out and they die.
George R. R. Martin
We only make peace with our enemies. That's why it's called making peace.
George R. R. Martin

George R. R. Martin
Folly and desperation are ofttimes hard to tell apart.
George R. R. Martin
I've never been quite sure what the point of a eunuch is, if truth be told. It seems to me they're only men with the useful bits cut off.
George R. R. Martin
Will holding a secret in your heart make it any less true? If you never tell, never speak of it, will it become only a dream, less than a dream, a nightmare half-remembered? Oh, if only the gods would be so good. (Catelyn)
George R. R. Martin
Men's lives have meaning, not their deaths.
George R. R. Martin
I just need to rest, that’s all, to rest and sleep some, and maybe die a little.
George R. R. Martin
Contempt, thought Tyrion, the universal tongue.

Everyone who isn't us is an enemy. - Cersei
George R. R. Martin
There are no heroes...in life, the monsters win.
George R. R. Martin
It was astonishing to see how angry Cersei could wax over accusations she knew perfectly well to be true.
George R. R. Martin
They can keep their heaven. When I die, I’d sooner go to Middle Earth.
