More quotes by George R. R. Martin
All men lie when they are afraid. Some tell many lies, some but a few. Some have only one great lie they tell so often that they almost come to believe it... though some small part of them will always know that it is still a lie, and that will show upon their faces. (a servant in the House of Black and White)
George R. R. Martin
I must show no fear, no weakness, no doubt.
George R. R. Martin
A man could not always be where he belonged, though.
George R. R. Martin
The High Septon once told me that as we sin, so do we suffer.
George R. R. Martin
A hedge knight must hold tight to his pride. Without it, he was no more than a sellsword

George R. R. Martin
The Beauty raised her eyes, the only part of her that was truly beautiful.
George R. R. Martin
Fantasy is silver and scarlet, indigo and azure, obsidian veined with gold and lapis lazuli. Reality is plywood and plastic, done up in mud brown and olive drab. Fantasy tastes of habaneros and honey, cinnamon and cloves, rare red meat and wines as sweet as summer. Reality is beans and tofu, and ashes at the end.
George R. R. Martin
Give me a good sharp knife and a good sharp cheese and I’m a happy man.
George R. R. Martin
He did not know which was more painful, the waking or the sleeping. When he slept, he dreamed: dark disturbing dreams of blood and broken promises. When he woke, there was nothing to do but think, and his waking thoughts were worse than nightmares.
George R. R. Martin
I know nothing and perhaps I never will.
George R. R. Martin
She had killed him with a whisper, and she would kill two more before she was through. I’m the ghost in Harrenhal, she thought. And that night, there was one less name to hate.
George R. R. Martin
Power is a trick. It lies where we believe it lies.
George R. R. Martin
...Ned always said that the man who passes the sentence should swing the blade, though he never took any joy in the duty. But I would, oh, yes.
George R. R. Martin
So young, said Wyman Manderly, Though mayhaps this was a blessing. Had he lived he would've grown up to be a Frey.
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
We're setting up mechanisms where we can kill human beings with drones and missiles where you're sitting at a console and pressing the button. We never have to hear their whimpering, or hear them begging for their mother, or dying in horrible realities around us. I don't know if that's necessarily such a good thing.
George R. R. Martin
When the sun rises in the west and sets in the east, she said sadly. When the seas go dry and mountains blow in the wind like leaves. When my womb quickens again, and I bear a living child. Then you will return, my sun-and-stars, and not before. -Daenerys Targaryen
George R. R. Martin
Only a fool humbles himself when the world is so full of men eager to do that job for him. (Theon Greyjoy)
George R. R. Martin
Gods and wonders always appear, to attend the birth of kings.
