More quotes by George R. R. Martin
A man who sees nothing has no use for his eyes,” the Mountain declared. “Cut them out and give them to your next outrider. Tell him you hope that four eyes might see better than two . . . and if not, the man after him will have six.
George R. R. Martin
His sister liked to think of herself as Lord Tywin with teats, but she was wrong. Their father had been as relentless and implacable as a glacier, where Cercei was all wildfire, especially when thwarted.
George R. R. Martin
Lords are gold and knights steel, but two links can't make a chain. You also need silver and iron and lead, tin and copper and bronze and all the rest, and those are farmers and smiths and merchants and the like. A chain needs all sorts of metals, and a land needs all sorts of people.
George R. R. Martin
Wisdom oft comes from the mouth of babes.
George R. R. Martin
She just laughed in his face and told him she'd sooner crawl in a bed with his father's leeches before she'd crawl in one with him. She stopped laughing when he put his knife in her.
George R. R. Martin
Gods and wonders always appear, to attend the birth of kings.
George R. R. Martin
The women are the strong ones, truly.
George R. R. Martin
I grew up with four T.V. channels. If you missed a show, you missed it. You gotta wait a week for the next one. I'd mail-order books: take a quarter, get an envelope, send off for it and wait until it arrived. I grew up waiting for things.
George R. R. Martin
He drew the dagger and laid it on the table between them a length of dragonbone and Valyrian steel, as sharp as the difference between right and wrong, between true and false, between life and death.
George R. R. Martin
He understood the way that you could sometimes fall right into them, as if each page was a hole into another world.
George R. R. Martin
I know nothing and perhaps I never will.
George R. R. Martin
You make us look bad', complained Toad. 'You looked bad before I ever met you', Jon told him.
George R. R. Martin
The years leech at a man's memories, even those he has vowed never to forget.
George R. R. Martin
Why do the Gods make kings and queens if not to protect the ones who can't protect themselves?
George R. R. Martin
Another name? Oh, certainly. And when the Faceless Men come to kill me, I'll say, 'No, you have the wrong man, I'm a different dwarf with a hideous facial scar.' Both Lannisters laughed at the absurdity of it all.
George R. R. Martin
Shattered legs may heal in time, but some betrayals fester and poison the soul.
George R. R. Martin
You little fool. Tears are not a woman's only weapon. You've got another one between your legs, and you'd best learn to use it. You'll find men use their swords freely enough. Both kinds of swords.
George R. R. Martin
He was no dragon, Dany thought, curiously calm. Fire cannot kill a dragon
George R. R. Martin
They say night's beauties fade at dawn, and the children of wine are oft disowned in the morning light.
George R. R. Martin
We only make peace with our enemies. That's why it's called making peace.
George R. R. Martin
