George R. R. Martin
You kill men for the wrongs they have done, not the wrongs that they may do someday.
George R. R. Martin
Even the sky was grey. Grey and grey and greyer. The whole world grey, everywhere you look, everything grey except the eyes of the bride. The eyes of the bride were brown. Big and brown and full of fear.
George R. R. Martin

George R. R. Martin

George R. R. Martin
When you have known the kiss of a flaying knife, a laugh loses all its power to hurt you.
George R. R. Martin
Tyrion wondered what it would be like to have a twin, and decided that he would rather not know. Bad enough to face himself in a looking glass every day.
George R. R. Martin
Truly, sister, you were born to be a widow. (Tyrion to Cersei)
George R. R. Martin
This is the bravo’s dance, the water dance, swift and sudden. All men are made of water, do you know this? When you pierce them, the water leaks out and they die.
George R. R. Martin
Sacrifice is never easy or it is no true sacrifice. - Stannis
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
