More quotes by George R. R. Martin
You are an honest and honorable man...Ofttimes I forget that. I have met so few of them in my life.
George R. R. Martin
We're setting up mechanisms where we can kill human beings with drones and missiles where you're sitting at a console and pressing the button. We never have to hear their whimpering, or hear them begging for their mother, or dying in horrible realities around us. I don't know if that's necessarily such a good thing.
George R. R. Martin
The city? Tyrion was lost. What city would that be? King's Landing. I am sending you to court. It was the last thing Tyrion Lannister would ever have anticipated. He reached for his wine, considered for a moment as he sipped. And what am I to do there? Rule, his father said curtly.
George R. R. Martin
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.
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
...spend my time warring and whoring, that's what I was made for.
George R. R. Martin
Life is not a song, sweetling. Someday you may learn that, to your sorrow.
George R. R. Martin
She walked fast, to keep ahead of her fear.
George R. R. Martin
If ice can burn, then love and hate can mate.
George R. R. Martin
Tears, she said scornfully to Sansa as the woman was led from the hall. The woman's weapon, my lady mother used to call them. The man's weapon is a sword. And that tells us all you need to know, doesn't it?
George R. R. Martin
Why ask for truth, Ser Barristan said softly, if you close your ears to it?
George R. R. Martin
My mother raised me to be bold. If I do not go, I will spend the rest of my life wondering what might have happened if I had. If you do go, the rest of your life may be too short for wondering. - Asha & Rodrick
George R. R. Martin
Gods be good, why would any man ever want to be king? When everyone was shouting King in the North, King in the North, I told myself ... swore to myself ... that I would be a good king, as honorable as Father, strong, just, loyal to my friends and brave when I faced my enemies ... now I can't even tell one from the other.
George R. R. Martin
A mad man sees what he sees.
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
History is a wheel, for the nature of man is fundamentally unchanging. What has happened before will perforce happen again.
George R. R. Martin
I rose too high, loved too hard, dared too much. I tried to grasp a star, overreached, and fell.
George R. R. Martin
A crown should not sit easy on the head.
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
Jon Snow had dreamed of leading men to glory just as King Daeron had, of growing up to be a conqueror. Now he was a man grown and the Wall was his, yet all he had were doubts. He could not even seem to conquer those.
George R. R. Martin
