George R. R. Martin
What do you like to do?” She scuffed a toe amongst the rushes. “Needlework.” “Very restful, isn’t it?” “Well,” said Arya, “not the way I do it.
George R. R. Martin
Contempt, thought Tyrion, the universal tongue.
George R. R. Martin
The man is as useless as nipples on a breastplate.

Has my tale turned you speechless? Come, curse me or kiss me or call me a liar. Something.
George R. R. Martin
The old man laid a withered, spotted hand on his shoulder. It hurts, boy, he said softly. Oh, yes. Choosing . . . it has always hurt. And always will. I know.
George R. R. Martin
Jon:'What are you doing up there? Why aren't you at the feast?' Tyrion: 'Too hot, too noisy, and I'd drunk too much wine', the dwarf told him. 'I learned long ago that it is considered rude to vomit on your brother.
George R. R. Martin
Half-truths are worth more than outright lies.
George R. R. Martin

George R. R. Martin
We all dream of things we cannot have.
George R. R. Martin
She is not truly beautiful but something about her draws the eye.
George R. R. Martin
Men will always underestimate you, he said, and their pride will make them want to vanquish you quickly, lest it be said that a woman tried them sorely. Let them spend their strength in furious attacks, whilst you conserve your own. Wait and watch, girl, wait and watch.
George R. R. Martin
