More quotes by George R. R. Martin
A mad man sees what he sees.
George R. R. Martin
The city? Tyrion was lost. What city would that be? King's Landing. I am sending you to court. It was the last thing Tyrion Lannister would ever have anticipated. He reached for his wine, considered for a moment as he sipped. And what am I to do there? Rule, his father said curtly.
George R. R. Martin
I rose too high, loved too hard, dared too much. I tried to grasp a star, overreached, and fell.
George R. R. Martin
When the sun rises in the west and sets in the east, she said sadly. When the seas go dry and mountains blow in the wind like leaves. When my womb quickens again, and I bear a living child. Then you will return, my sun-and-stars, and not before. -Daenerys Targaryen
George R. R. Martin
You know nothing, Jon Snow
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
The Gods give with one hand and take with the other.
George R. R. Martin
The common people pray for rain, healthy children and a summer that never ends. It is no matter to them if the high lords play their game of thrones, so long as they are left in peace.
George R. R. Martin
We all need to be mocked from time to time, lest we take ourselves too seriously.
George R. R. Martin
Always keep your foes confused. If they are never certain who you are or what you want, they cannot know what you are like to do next.
George R. R. Martin
Why is it that when one man builds a wall, the next man immediately needs to know what's on the other side?
George R. R. Martin
I work for two years on a book and it comes out and two days later I've got my first e-mail: When is the next one coming out?
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
In the world as I have seen it, no man grows rich by kindness.
George R. R. Martin
There are no happy endings.
George R. R. Martin
I love you too, sweet sister. But you're a fool. A beautiful golden fool.
George R. R. Martin
Tyrion wondered what it would be like to have a twin, and decided that he would rather not know. Bad enough to face himself in a looking glass every day.
George R. R. Martin
She could not bear to look at him just now. If she did, she might well slap him again. Or cry. Or kiss him. And never know which was right and which was wrong and which was madness.
George R. R. Martin
Mothers. The man made a word sound like a curse. I think birthing does something to your minds. You are all mad.
George R. R. Martin
The apples stewed with prunes are excellent, except for the prunes, I won't eat prunes myself. Well, there was one time when Hobb chopped them up with chesnuts and carrots and hid them in a hen. Never trust a cook, my lord. They'll prune you when you least expect it.
