More quotes by George R. R. Martin

George R. R. Martin
I believe that a writer learns from every story he writes, and when you try different things, you learn different lessons. Working with other writers, as in Hollywood or in a shared world series, will also strengthen your skills, by exposing you to new ways of seeing the work, and different approaches to certain creative challenges.
George R. R. Martin
I have idea files of books that I want to write one of these days, stories I want to write one of these days, but I'll probably never get to them.
George R. R. Martin
Drowning was bad enough. But drowning sad and sober, that's too cruel.

I can see a scene in my head, and when I try to get it down in words on paper, the words are clunky the scene is not coming across right. So frustrating. And there are days where it keeps flowing. Open the floodgates, and there it is. Pages and pages coming. Where the hell does this all come from? I don't know.
George R. R. Martin
With a book I am the writer and I am also the director and I'm all of the actors and I'm the special effects guy and the lighting technician: I'm all of that. So if it's good or bad, it's all up to me.
George R. R. Martin
A mad man sees what he sees.
George R. R. Martin
The Beauty raised her eyes, the only part of her that was truly beautiful.
George R. R. Martin
When Maester Aemon heard him sing, he said his voice was honey poured over thunder.
George R. R. Martin
The vast majority of writers out there, they finish their books and no one cares whether their book is late or ever comes out at all. And then it comes out and two reviews are published and it sells 12 copies.
George R. R. Martin
But Tolkien doesn't ask the question: What was Aragorn's tax policy?
George R. R. Martin
I was born in Bayonne, New Jersey. I grew up in the projects. I never went anywhere. But I have lived a thousand lives and I’ve loved a thousand loves. I’ve walked on distant worlds and seen the end of time. Because I read.
George R. R. Martin
I prefer my history dead. Dead history is writ in ink, the living sort in blood.
George R. R. Martin
I am Cersei of House Lannister, a lion of the Rock, the rightful queen of these Seven Kingdoms, trueborn daughter of Tywin Lannister. And hair grows back.
George R. R. Martin
The Iron Throne is mine by rights. All those who deny that are my foes. The whole of the realm denies it, brother, said Renley. Old men deny it with their death rattle, and unborn children deny it in their mothers' wombs. They deny it in Dorne and they deny it on the Wall. No one wants you for their king. Sorry.
George R. R. Martin
If half an onion is black with rot, it is a rotten onion. A man is good or he is evil. (Melisandre of Asshai)

All dwarfs may be bastards yet not all bastards are dwarfs.
