The best calumnies are spiced with truth.

So many vows … they make you swear and swear. Defend the king. Obey the king. Keep his secrets. Do his bidding. Your life for his. But obey your father. Love your sister. Protect the innocent. Defend the weak. Respect the gods. Obey the laws. It’s too much. No matter what you do, you’re forsaking one vow or another.
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

George R. R. Martin

George R. R. Martin
