Author: Martin, George R. R.

  • Some old wounds never truly heal, and bleed again at the slightest word.

  • A bastard had to learn to notice things, to read the truth that people hid behind their eyes.

  • Jon had seen an abandoned holdfast once, a drear place where nothing moved but the wind and the stones kept silent about whatever people had lived there.

  • When he opened the door, the light from within threw his shadow clear across the yard, and for just a moment Tyrion Lannister stood tall as a king.
