George R. R. Martin
As a writer, my goal, (which I'm never going to achieve, and I know that, and no writer can achieve that,) but my goal is to make you almost live the books. I want you to fall through that page and feel as if these things are happening to you.
George R. R. Martin

George R. R. Martin
If the day comes when you would find me again, give that coin to any man from Braavos, and say these words to him--valar morghulis.
George R. R. Martin
Light our fire and protect us from the dark, blah blah, light our way and keep us toasty warm, the night is dark and full of terrors, save us from the scary things, and blah blah blah some more.
George R. R. Martin
I have done a lot of work in Hollywood myself. I worked in television for roughly 10 years, from the mid-'80s to mid-'90s. And I was on staff at a couple of shows. I did some feature films, including originals and adaptations.
George R. R. Martin
Do you want to die old and craven in your bed?- How else? Though not till I'm done reading.
George R. R. Martin
The world is full of cravens who pretended to be heroes.
George R. R. Martin
I just need to rest, that’s all, to rest and sleep some, and maybe die a little.
George R. R. Martin
The greatest fools are ofttimes more clever than the men who laugh at them.
George R. R. Martin
The true horrors of human history derive not from orcs and Dark Lords, but from ourselves.
George R. R. Martin
There are worse ways to die than warm and drunk.
George R. R. Martin
We look up at the same stars and see such different things. - Jon Snow
