More quotes by George R. R. Martin
There are some examples of medieval kings who were terrible human beings but were nevertheless good kings.
George R. R. Martin
I try to make the readers feel they've lived the events of the book. Just as you grieve if a friend is killed, you should grieve if a fictional character is killed. You should care. If somebody dies and you just go get more popcorn, it's a superficial experience isn't it?
George R. R. Martin
Knowledge is a Weapon, Jon. Arm yourself well before you ride forth to Battle.
George R. R. Martin
There are ghosts everywhere, Ser Jorah said softly. We carry them with us wherever we go.
George R. R. Martin
Catelyn wanted to run to him, to kiss his sweet brow, to wrap him in her arms so tightly that he would never come to harm.
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
And I tell you truly, Danaerys, there is no man in all the world who will ever be half so true to you as me.
George R. R. Martin
You are an honest and honorable man...Ofttimes I forget that. I have met so few of them in my life.
George R. R. Martin
Black moleskin gloves covered his hands the right because it was burned, the left because a man felt half a fool wearing only one glove.
George R. R. Martin
But Tolkien doesn't ask the question: What was Aragorn's tax policy?
George R. R. Martin
Not all men were meant to dance with dragons.
George R. R. Martin
A man does not need to be a wizard to know truth from falsehood, not if he has eyes. You need only learn to read a face. Look at the eyes. The mouth. The muscles here, at the corners of the jaw, and here, where the neck joins the shoulders.
George R. R. Martin
No mortal man could frighten him, no more than the darkness could, nor the bones of his soul, the grey and grisly bones of his soul.
George R. R. Martin
The man who fears losing has already lost.
George R. R. Martin
I'm honest. It's the world that's awful.
George R. R. Martin
I can be humbler than anyone.
George R. R. Martin
With a book I am the writer and I am also the director and I'm all of the actors and I'm the special effects guy and the lighting technician: I'm all of that. So if it's good or bad, it's all up to me.
George R. R. Martin
If I die, I die friendless and abandoned. What choice did that leave him, but to live?
George R. R. Martin
Littlefinger: A trade envoy from Lys once observed to me that Lord Stannis must love his daughter very well, since he'd erected hundreds of statues of her all along the walls of Dragonstone. Tyrion: My lord, those are gargoyles.
George R. R. Martin
I suppose I'm a lapsed Catholic. You would consider me an atheist or agnostic.
George R. R. Martin
