More quotes by George R. R. Martin
Tyrion let the eunuch help him mount. Lord Varys, he said from the saddle, sometimes I feel as though you are the best friend I have in King's Landing and sometimes I feel you are my worst enemy. How odd. I think quite the same of you.
George R. R. Martin
There is magic in my universe, but it's pretty low magic compared to other fantasies.
George R. R. Martin
He wished he could relieve himself of his doubts and guilts half as easily.
George R. R. Martin
The wildlings seemed to think Ygritte a great beauty because of her hair red hair was rare among the free folk, and those who had it were said to be kissed by fire, which was supposed to be lucky.
George R. R. Martin
Men's lives have meaning, not their deaths.
George R. R. Martin
Men are mad and gods are madder, she told the grass, and the grass murmured its agreement.
George R. R. Martin
If he must be alone, he would make solitude his armor.
George R. R. Martin
Fiction is lies we're writing about people who never existed and events that never happened when we write fiction, whether its science fiction or fantasy or western mystery stories or so-called literary stories. All those things are essentially untrue. But it has to have a truth at the core of it.
George R. R. Martin
When treating with liars, even an honest man must lie.
George R. R. Martin
There are two kinds of writers. There are architects and gardeners. The architects do blueprints before they drive the first nail. The gardeners just dig a hole and plant the seed and see what comes up.
George R. R. Martin
A mind needs books as a sword needs a whetstone, if it is to keep its edge.
George R. R. Martin
I knew a man once who told me that I smiled at the wrong things. Do you? Only by the light of those who smile at nothing.
George R. R. Martin
The distinction between literary and genre fiction is stupid and pernicious. It dates back to a feud between Robert Louis Stevenson and Henry James. James won, and it split literature into two streams. But it's a totally false dichotomy.
George R. R. Martin
A Lannister always pays his debts.
George R. R. Martin
And I have a tender spot in my heart for cripples and bastards and broken things.
George R. R. Martin
If the novels are still being read in 50 years, no one is ever going to say: 'What's great about that sixth book is that he met his deadline!' It will be about how the whole thing stands up.
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
I think my very earliest stories were all intellectual exercises and I was writing from experiences I had never had about characters who were about an inch deep.
George R. R. Martin
Kill me, and be cursed. You are no king of mine.
George R. R. Martin
Drowning was bad enough. But drowning sad and sober, that's too cruel.
George R. R. Martin
