Ofttimes a very small man can cast a very large shadow. Tyrion smiled. Lord Varys, I am growing strangely fond of you. I may kill you yet, but I think I'd feel sad about it. I will take that as high praise.

I had an encyclopedia with a list of flags in the back, so I would look at all these flags of China and Liberia and England and Denmark and whatever, and I learned all the different flags and I tried to imagine what it would be like to be voyaging on some of these ships.

What would a Frey know of honor? - Sir Davos Seaworth
George R. R. Martin
A craven can be as brave as any man, when there is nothing to fear. And we all do our duty, when there is no cost to it. How easy it seems then, to walk the path of honor. Yet soon or late in every man's life comes a day when it is not easy, a day when he must choose. (Maester Aemon)
George R. R. Martin
Sorcery is the sauce fools spoon over failure to hide the flavor of their own incompetence.

George R. R. Martin
Kill me, and be cursed. You are no king of mine.
George R. R. Martin
I will hurt you for this. I don't know how yet, but give me time. A day will come when you think yourself safe and happy, and suddenly your joy will turn to ashes in your mouth, and you'll know the debt is paid.
George R. R. Martin
Why do the Gods make kings and queens if not to protect the ones who can't protect themselves?

A mind needs books as a sword needs a whetstone, if it is to keep its edge.
George R. R. Martin
Once a man has seen a dragon in flight, let him stay home and tend his garden in content, someone had written once, for this wide world has no greater wonder. Tyrion scratched at his scar and tried to recall the author's name.
George R. R. Martin
A thousand deaths would still be less than he deserves.
George R. R. Martin
When a man was hurt you took him to the maester, but what could you do when your maester was hurt?
George R. R. Martin
I have a hole where my heart should be, she thought, and nowhere else to go.
George R. R. Martin
We're setting up mechanisms where we can kill human beings with drones and missiles where you're sitting at a console and pressing the button. We never have to hear their whimpering, or hear them begging for their mother, or dying in horrible realities around us. I don't know if that's necessarily such a good thing.
George R. R. Martin
The eunuch had looked death in the face, so near he might have kissed her on the lips.
George R. R. Martin
There are worse ways to die than warm and drunk.
