George R.R. Martin

Our honor means no more than our lives, so long as the realm is safe.

Sellswords put gold before honor.

Never believe anything you hear at a woman__ tit.

Ser Cleos looked like a weasel, fought like a goose, and had the courage of an especially brave ewe.

Would you rather die with honor intact or live with it besmirched?

There__ always a bear,

No man should live longer than his teeth.

They__e both bungholes who think they__e too noble to shit,

They say it grows so cold up here in winter that a man__ laughter freezes in his throat and chokes him to death,_ Ned said evenly. __erhaps that is why the Starks have so little humor.

I swear to you, sitting a throne is a thousand times harder than winning one.

He who hurries through life hurries to his grave.

All these kings would do a deal better if they would put down their swords and listen to their mothers.

Curiosity is my great vice. I fear you have seen through to the heart of me, and now seek to exploit my weakness

Why is it that when one man builds a wall, the next man immediately needs to know what's on the other side?

Death, there will be death, aye. Your lordship lost a son at the Red Wedding. I lost four upon the Blackwater. And why? Because the Lannisters stole the throne. Go to King__ Landing and look on Tommen with your own eyes, if you doubt me. A blind man could see it. What does Stannis offer you? Vengeance. Vengeance for my sons and yours, for your husbands and your fathers and your brothers. Vengeance for your murdered lord, your murdered king, your butchered princes. Vengeance!

It's death and destruction I want to bring down upon House Lannister, not scorn. Jon said.

Flies are the dead man's revenge.

I will hurt you for this. I don't know how yet, but give me time. A day will come when you think yourself safe and happy, and suddenly your joy will turn to ashes in your mouth, and you'll know the debt is paid.
