More quotes by George R. R. Martin
Nothing bores me more than books where you read two pages and you know exactly how it's going to come out. I want twists and turns that surprise me, characters that have a difficult time and that I don't know if they're going to live or die.
George R. R. Martin
More details, more devils.

George R. R. Martin

George R. R. Martin
Ser Barristan loves his honor, Grand Maester Pycelle loves his office, and Littlefinger loves Littlefinger.
George R. R. Martin
I have climbed these steps so often I know each one by name.
George R. R. Martin
My old grandmother always used to say, Summer friends will melt away like summer snows, but winter friends are friends forever.
George R. R. Martin
In the world as I have seen it, no man grows rich by kindness.
George R. R. Martin
Every once in a very long while, Lord Tywin Lannister would actually threaten to smile he never did, but the threat alone was terrible to behold.
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
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
