More quotes by George R. R. Martin
It is being common-born that is dangerous, when the great lords play their game of thrones.
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
I will hurt you for this. I don't know how yet, but give me time. A day will come when you think yourself safe and happy, and suddenly your joy will turn to ashes in your mouth, and you'll know the debt is paid.
George R. R. Martin
You know nothing, Jon Snow
George R. R. Martin
A cold wind was blowing from the north, and it made the trees rustle like living things.
George R. R. Martin
My brother has his sword, King Robert has his warhammer and I have my mind...and a mind needs books as a sword needs a whetstone if it is to keep its edge. That's why I read so much Jon Snow.
George R. R. Martin
But what a man can do and what a man will do are two different things, he knew.
George R. R. Martin
That little touch is not in the books, but I wish it had been in the books because it was a great addition.
George R. R. Martin
On the gallows tree, all men are brothers.
George R. R. Martin
A fair bargain leaves both sides unhappy.
George R. R. Martin
Love is the bane of honor, the death of duty.
George R. R. Martin
Perhaps I cannot make my people good, she told herself, but I should at least try to make them a little less bad.
George R. R. Martin
