Quote

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.

Image
A craven can be as brave as any man, when there is nothing to fear. And we all do our duty, when there is no cost to it. How easy it seems then, to walk the path of honor. Yet soon or late in every man's life comes a day when it is not easy, a day when he must choose. (Maester Aemon)

He who hurries through life hurries to his grave.

Half-truths are worth more than outright lies.
George R. R. Martin
Image
Madness and greatness are two sides of the same coin. Every time a new Targaryen is born, the gods toss the coin in the air and the world holds its breath to see how it will land.

Mothers. The man made a word sound like a curse. I think birthing does something to your minds. You are all mad.

Fear cuts deeper than swords.

George R. R. Martin
Image
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.

We know truth for the cruel instrument it is. Beauty is infinitely preferable to truth.

The maester smiled...Hush now, child, I'm much older than you. I can....die as I please.

It was astonishing to see how angry Cersei could wax over accusations she knew perfectly well to be true.

Dragons old and young, true and false, bright and dark. And you. A small man with a big shadow, snarling in the midst of all.

It was a story called ‘The Hero’ which I sold to Galaxy magazine in 1970, for $94.

Image
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.

Only a fool humbles himself when the world is so full of men eager to do that job for him. (Theon Greyjoy)

Jon Snow: I'm not afraid to die. Mormont: Nor life, I hope.

My brother has his sword, King Robert has his warhammer and I have my mind...and a mind needs books as a sword needs a whetstone if it is to keep its edge. That's why I read so much Jon Snow.

If a man paints a target on his chest, he should expect that sooner or later someone will loose an arrow on him.
