George R. R. Martin
Some men want whores on the eve of battle, and some want gods. Jon wondered who felt better afterward.

George R. R. Martin
We all dream of things we cannot have.
George R. R. Martin
The Iron Throne is mine by rights. All those who deny that are my foes. The whole of the realm denies it, brother, said Renley. Old men deny it with their death rattle, and unborn children deny it in their mothers' wombs. They deny it in Dorne and they deny it on the Wall. No one wants you for their king. Sorry.
George R. R. Martin
What the King dreams, the Hand builds.
George R. R. Martin

George R. R. Martin
He pushed away from her and raised his arm, forcing his stump into her face. A Hand without a hand? A bad jape, sister. Don't ask me to rule.
George R. R. Martin
We read fantasy to find the colors again, I think. To taste strong spices and hear the songs the sirens sang.
George R. R. Martin
No fight is hopeless till it has been fought.
George R. R. Martin
In my 10 years that I spent out in TV and film, I had my shares of frustrations and annoyances and disappointments, but also I think it was, in the long run, it was very good for me in a whole bunch of ways.
George R. R. Martin
I have climbed these steps so often I know each one by name.
George R. R. Martin
Politicians were mostly people who'd had too little morals and ethics to stay lawyers.
George R. R. Martin
When a man was hurt you took him to the maester, but what could you do when your maester was hurt?
George R. R. Martin
A hedge knight must hold tight to his pride. Without it, he was no more than a sellsword
