More quotes by George R. R. Martin
'Rome' was one of my favourite shows, and I wish HBO had given it three more seasons 'cause I would have loved to continue watching it.
George R. R. Martin
And all was black and still, and black and cold, and black and dead, and black.
George R. R. Martin
My own heroes are the dreamers, those men and women who tried to make the world a better place than when they found it, whether in small ways or great ones. Some succeeded, some failed, most had mixed results... but it is the effort that's heroic, as I see it. Win or lose, I admire those who fight the good fight.
George R. R. Martin
I have always regarded historical fiction and fantasy as sisters under the skin, two genres separated at birth.
George R. R. Martin
If somebody dies and you just go get more popcorn, it’s a superficial experience isn’t it?
George R. R. Martin
You do not steal from the dragon, oh, no. The dragon remembers.
George R. R. Martin
A mad man sees what he sees.
George R. R. Martin
One voice may speak you false, but in many there is always truth to be found.
George R. R. Martin
I have a hole where my heart should be, she thought, and nowhere else to go.
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
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
I believe that a writer learns from every story he writes, and when you try different things, you learn different lessons. Working with other writers, as in Hollywood or in a shared world series, will also strengthen your skills, by exposing you to new ways of seeing the work, and different approaches to certain creative challenges.
George R. R. Martin
Men are men, vows are words, and words are wind.
George R. R. Martin
That little touch is not in the books, but I wish it had been in the books because it was a great addition.
George R. R. Martin
There is something old and true in fantasy that speaks to something deep within us, to the child who dreamt that one day he would hunt the forests of the night, and feast beneath the hollow hills, and find a love to last forever somewhere south of Oz and north of Shangri-La.
George R. R. Martin
Noseless and Handless, the Lannister Boys.
George R. R. Martin
There are no men like me. There's only me
George R. R. Martin
You always try to do your own thing. One of the things I wanted to do was to write a book that combines some of the best traits of contemporary fantasy with some of the traits of the historical novel.
George R. R. Martin
I am only a little lion, child, and I vow, I shall not savage you.
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
