More quotes by 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
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
There are no men like me. There's only me
George R. R. Martin
Tolkien made the wrong choice when he brought Gandalf back. Screw Gandalf. He had a great death and the characters should have had to go on without him.
George R. R. Martin
Those are brave men, he told Ser Balon in admiration. Let's go kill them.
George R. R. Martin
Jon Snow: I'm not afraid to die. Mormont: Nor life, I hope.
George R. R. Martin
There is magic in my universe, but it's pretty low magic compared to other fantasies.
George R. R. Martin
The High Septon once told me that as we sin, so do we suffer.
George R. R. Martin
Lords are gold and knights steel, but two links can't make a chain. You also need silver and iron and lead, tin and copper and bronze and all the rest, and those are farmers and smiths and merchants and the like. A chain needs all sorts of metals, and a land needs all sorts of people.
George R. R. Martin
The greatest fools are ofttimes more clever than the men who laugh at them.
George R. R. Martin
No one who wears a crown is ever safe.
George R. R. Martin
When a man was hurt you took him to the maester, but what could you do when your maester was hurt?
George R. R. Martin
Do dead man dream? The dead themselves are silent on the matter
George R. R. Martin
I just need to rest, that’s all, to rest and sleep some, and maybe die a little.
George R. R. Martin
If ice can burn, then love and hate can mate.
George R. R. Martin
The heart lies and the head plays tricks on us, but the eyes see true. Look with your eyes. Hear with your ears. Taste with your mouth. Smell with your nose. Feel with your skin. Then comes the thinking, afterward, and in a way knowing the truth.
George R. R. Martin
First rule, stick them with the pointy end!
George R. R. Martin
The eunuch had looked death in the face, so near he might have kissed her on the lips.
George R. R. Martin
I've never been quite sure what the point of a eunuch is, if truth be told. It seems to me they're only men with the useful bits cut off.
George R. R. Martin
You should grieve if a fictional character is killed. You should care.
George R. R. Martin
