Dragons old and young, true and false, bright and dark. And you. A small man with a big shadow, snarling in the midst of all.
George R. R. Martin
A bag of dragons buys a man's silence for a while, but a well-placed quarrel buys it forever.
George R. R. Martin
When Maester Aemon heard him sing, he said his voice was honey poured over thunder.
George R. R. Martin
You must put these dreams aside, they will only break your heart.
