You look different now. Like a proper little girl, (said Gendry.) I look like an oak tree, with all these stupid acorns, (said Arya.) Nice, though. A nice oak tree. [...] You even smell nice for a change.

They can keep their heaven. When I die, I’d sooner go to Middle Earth.
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
In the game of thrones, even the humblest pieces can have wills of their own. Sometimes they refuse to make the moves you've planned for them.
George R. R. Martin
Sacrifice is never easy or it is no true sacrifice. - Stannis
George R. R. Martin
His sister liked to think of herself as Lord Tywin with teats, but she was wrong. Their father had been as relentless and implacable as a glacier, where Cercei was all wildfire, especially when thwarted.
George R. R. Martin
He understood the way that you could sometimes fall right into them, as if each page was a hole into another world.
George R. R. Martin
Names are hard. I have a library of What to Name Your Baby books, and I’m always picking up new books, and books of baby names from other countries. I like cool-sounding names.

George R. R. Martin
But a voice inside her whispered, There are no heroes, and she remembered what Lord Petyr had said to her, here in this very hall. 'Life is not a song, sweetling,' he'd told her, 'You may learn that one day to your sorrow.' In life, the monsters win, she told herself.
George R. R. Martin
Mothers. The man made a word sound like a curse. I think birthing does something to your minds. You are all mad.
George R. R. Martin
I have a huge emotional attachment to characters I've created, especially the viewpoint characters.
George R. R. Martin
A man does not need to be a wizard to know truth from falsehood, not if he has eyes. You need only learn to read a face. Look at the eyes. The mouth. The muscles here, at the corners of the jaw, and here, where the neck joins the shoulders.
George R. R. Martin
The maester smiled...Hush now, child, I'm much older than you. I can....die as I please.
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
In the world as I have seen it, no man grows rich by kindness.
George R. R. Martin
I do play all the characters, when I write them, one after another. If they actually had to film me, the only one I could play would be Samwell Tarly or Hot Pie.
George R. R. Martin
When we speak of the morrow nothing is ever certain.
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
Tarly, when I was a lad half your age, my lady mother told me that if I stood about with my mouth open, a weasel was like to mistake it for his lair and run down my throat. If you have something to say, say it. Otherwise, beware of weasels.
