More quotes by George R. R. Martin

One of the big breakthroughs, I think for me, was reading Robert A. Heinlein's four rules of writing, one of which was, 'You must finish what you write.' I never had any problem with the first one, 'You must write' - I was writing since I was a kid. But I never finished what writing.
George R. R. Martin
The white horse and the black one wheeled like lovers at a harvest dance, the riders throwing steel in place of kisses.

George R. R. Martin
I can be humbler than anyone.
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
As much as I love historical fiction, my problem with historical fiction is that you always know what's going to happen.
George R. R. Martin
A bag of dragons buys a man's silence for a while, but a well-placed quarrel buys it forever.
George R. R. Martin
Faith is like porridge. Better with milk and honey.
George R. R. Martin
My biggest dream was to ruin the lives of my readers and crush their souls... And I really think that worked out pretty well for me.
George R. R. Martin
All fiction has to have a certain amount of truth in it to be powerful.
George R. R. Martin
The Red God takes what is his, lovely girl. And only death may pay for life. You saved me and the two I was with. You stole three deaths from the Red God. We have to give them back. Speak three names and the man will do the rest. Three lives I will give you - no more, no less, and we're done.
George R. R. Martin
The only time a man can be brave is when he is afraid.
