George R. R. Martin
I love you too, sweet sister. But you're a fool. A beautiful golden fool.
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
Dragons old and young, true and false, bright and dark. And you. A small man with a big shadow, snarling in the midst of all.
George R. R. Martin
