[Melisandre] His Grace is growing fond of you. [Jon] I can tell. He only threatened to behead me twice. Page 58
George R. R. Martin
...spend my time warring and whoring, that's what I was made for.
George R. R. Martin
A thousand deaths would still be less than he deserves.
George R. R. Martin
Littlefinger: A trade envoy from Lys once observed to me that Lord Stannis must love his daughter very well, since he'd erected hundreds of statues of her all along the walls of Dragonstone. Tyrion: My lord, those are gargoyles.
George R. R. Martin
Chaos isn’t a pit. Chaos is a ladder. Many who try to climb it fail and never get to try again. The fall breaks them. And some are given a chance to climb, but they refuse. They cling to the realm, or the gods, or love. Illusions. Only the ladder is real. The climb is all there is.
George R. R. Martin
A lion doesn't concern itself with the opinion of sheep.
George R. R. Martin
The snow drifted down and down, all in ghostly silence, and lay thick and unbroken on the ground. It was a place of whites and blacks and greys. White towers and white snow and white statues, black shadows and black trees, the dark grey sky above. A pure world, Sansa thought. I do not belong here. Yet she stepped out all the same.
George R. R. Martin
Once a man has seen a dragon in flight, let him stay home and tend his garden in content, someone had written once, for this wide world has no greater wonder. Tyrion scratched at his scar and tried to recall the author's name.
George R. R. Martin
The heart lies and the head plays tricks with us, but the eyes see true.
George R. R. Martin
The best calumnies are spiced with truth.

The best writing advice I had was [in] ‘Heinlein’s Rules for Writers’ by (American science fiction author) Robert A. Heinlein. His first rule is that you must write, and I was already doing that, but his second rule is, ‘You must finish what you write,’ and that had a big impact on me.

A harp can be a dangerous as a sword, in the right hands.
George R. R. Martin
What would a Frey know of honor? - Sir Davos Seaworth
George R. R. Martin
Sometimes he could almost forget that it was there, the way you forget about the sky or the earth underfoot, but there were other times when it seemed as if there was nothing else in the world.
George R. R. Martin
his snores sounded like ducks mating.
George R. R. Martin
All dwarfs are bastards in their father's eyes
George R. R. Martin
The man who fears losing has already lost.
George R. R. Martin
Faith is like porridge. Better with milk and honey.
George R. R. Martin
I like grey characters fantasy for too long has been focused on very stereotypical heroes and villains.
George R. R. Martin
I always give my students exercises where they really have to open a vein and bleed all over the paper and that's the way you get the important characters. Sooner or later every writer worth reading writes a story his mother wouldn't read and having to get that stuff out is part of one's growth as a writer.
George R. R. Martin
