Text Quotes
I’m a huge fan of Tolkien. I read those books when I was in junior high school and high school, and they had a profound effect on me. I’d read other fantasy before, but none of them that I loved like Tolkien (George R R Martin Quotes)
I’ve been many kinds of writers in my career: novelist; tele-playwright; short story writer. As a high-school student, I wrote amateur pieces for fanzines, and I’ve written for Hollywood (George R R Martin Quotes)
One of the big breakthroughs, I think for me, was reading Robert A. Heinlein’s four rules of writing, one of which was, ‘You must finish what you write.’ I never had any problem with the first one, ‘You must write’ - I was writing since I was a kid. But I never finished what writing (George R R Martin Quotes)
Start with short stories. After all, if you were taking up rock climbing, you wouldn’t start with Mount Everest. So if you’re starting fantasy, don’t start with a nine-book series (George R R Martin Quotes)
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 Quotes)
The prejudice is still there, but it’s breaking down. You have writers like Michael Chabon and The Yiddish Policemen’s Union. He’s a writer who’s determined to break down genre barriers. He’s done amazing things (George R R Martin Quotes)

You always try to do your own thing. One of the things I wanted to do was to write a book that combines some of the best traits of contemporary fantasy with some of the traits of the historical novel (George R R Martin Quotes)
The heart lies and the head plays tricks on us, but the eyes see true. Look with your eyes. Hear with your ears. Taste with your mouth. Smell with your nose. Feel with your skin. Then comes the thinking, afterward, and in a way knowing the truth (George R R Martin Quotes)
Will you make a song for him?’ the woman asked. ‘He has a song,’ the man replied. ‘He is the prince that was promised, and his is the song of ice and fire (George R R Martin Quotes)
My own heroes are the dreamers, those men and women who tried to make the world a better place than when they found it, whether in small ways or great ones. Some succeeded, some failed, most had mixed results... but it is the effort that’s heroic, as I see it. Win or lose, I admire those who fight the good fight (George R R Martin Quotes)
I am loyal to my beloved Joffrey. (Sansa) No doubt. As loyal as a deer surrounded by wolves. (Tyrion) Lions, she whispered without thinking (George R R Martin Quotes)
His time was past, her handmaid Irri declared. No man should live longer than his teeth (George R R Martin Quotes)
Littlefinger looked like a boy who had just taken a furtive bite from a honeycomb. He was TRYING to watch for bees, but the honey was so sweet (George R R Martin Quotes)
Viserys sold my mother’s crown, and men called him a beggar. I shall keep this one, so men will call me a queen. (Daenerys) (George R R Martin Quotes)
If I took it away, no doubt I’d find a morningstar hidden under your pillow within a fortnight. Try not to stab your sister, whatever the provocation (George R R Martin Quotes)
Do you want to die old and craven in your bed?- How else? Though not till I’m done reading (George R R Martin Quotes)
But my philosophy is that plot advancement is not what the experience of reading fiction is about. If all we care about is advancing the plot, why read novels? We can just read Cliffs Notes (George R R Martin Quotes)
Jon:’What are you doing up there? Why aren’t you at the feast?’ Tyrion: ‘Too hot, too noisy, and I’d drunk too much wine’, the dwarf told him. ‘I learned long ago that it is considered rude to vomit on your brother (George R R Martin Quotes)
You make us look bad’, complained Toad. ‘You looked bad before I ever met you’, Jon told him (George R R Martin Quotes)
Lord Snow wants to take my place now.’ He sneered. ‘I’d have an easier time teaching a wolf to juggle than you will training this aurochs.’ ‘I’ll take that wager, Ser Alliser’, Jon said. ‘I’d love to see Ghost juggle (George R R Martin Quotes)
Kill the boy, Jon Snow. Winter is almost upon us. Kill the boy and let the man be born (George R R Martin Quotes)
We look at mountains and call them eternal, and they seem... but in the course of time, mountains rise and fall, rivers change their courses, starts fall from the sky, and great cities sink beneath the sea. Even gods die, we think. Everything changes (George R R Martin Quotes)
Jon shrugged. ‘Girls get the arms but not the swords. Bastards get the swords but not the arms. I did not make the rules, little sister (George R R Martin Quotes)
I’ve lost a hand, a father, a son, a sister, and a lover, and soon enough I will lose a brother. And yet they keep telling me House Lannister won this war (George R R Martin Quotes)
They were never my pack, not even Hot Pie and Gendry. I was stupid to think so, just a stupid little girl, and no wolf at all (George R R Martin Quotes)
I take no joy in mead nor meat, and song and laughter have become suspicious strangers to me. I am a creature of grief and dust and bitter longings. There is an empty place within me where my heart was once (George R R Martin Quotes)
Woman? Is that meant to insult me? I would return the slap, if I took you for a man. - Daenerys Targaryen (George R R Martin Quotes)
I heard of a man who had a razor made of Valyrian steel. He cut his head off trying to shave (George R R Martin Quotes)
Let me tell you something about wolves, child. When the snows fall and the white winds blow, the lone wolf dies, but the pack survives. In winter, we must protect one another, keep each other warm, share our strengths. So if you must hate, Arya, hate those who would truly do us harm (George R R Martin Quotes)
