More quotes by George R. R. Martin
All fiction has to have a certain amount of truth in it to be powerful.
George R. R. Martin
I had an encyclopedia with a list of flags in the back, so I would look at all these flags of China and Liberia and England and Denmark and whatever, and I learned all the different flags and I tried to imagine what it would be like to be voyaging on some of these ships.

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
The man who never reads lives only one.

Folly and desperation are ofttimes hard to tell apart.
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
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
Love is the bane of honor, the death of duty.
George R. R. Martin
All dwarfs may be bastards yet not all bastards are dwarfs.
George R. R. Martin
The heart lies and the head plays tricks on us, but the eyes see true. Look with your eyes. Hear with your ears. Taste with your mouth. Smell with your nose. Feel with your skin. Then comes the thinking, afterward, and in a way knowing the truth.
George R. R. Martin
A harp can be a dangerous as a sword, in the right hands.
George R. R. Martin
I would choose freedom over comfort every time.
George R. R. Martin
The best calumnies are spiced with truth.
George R. R. Martin
All the world knew that a maester forged his silver link when he learned the art of healing—but the world preferred to forget that men who knew how to heal also knew how to kill.
