"Abashed the devil stood and felt how awful goodness is and saw Virtue in her shape how lovely: and pined his loss"

Tyrion Lannister quotes from A Song of Ice & Fire (George R R Martin)

"A mind needs books like a sword needs a whetstone, if it is to keep its edge. That is why I read so much."

"Never forget what you are. The rest of the world will not. Wear it like an armour & it can never be used to hurt you."

When you tear out a man's tongue you are not proving him a liar. You are telling the world that you fear what he might say

It all goes back & back. To our mothers & fathers & to theirs before them. We are puppets dancing on the strings of those who came before us & one day our own children will take up our strings & dance in our steads.

Jaime Lannister quotes from A Song of Ice & Fire (George R R Martin)

I am not ashamed of loving you, only of the things I have done to hide it.

There are no men like me, only me!

A man can bear most anything if he must. The world is full of horrors. You can fight them or laugh at them or look without seeing...go away inside.

By what right does the wolf judge the Lion?

A song of Ice & Fire quotes

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

"History is a wheel, for the nature of man is fundamentally unchanging. What has happened before will perforce happen again."

"Chaos isn't a pit. Chaos is a ladder. Many who try to climb it fail and never get to try again. The fall breaks them. And some, are given a chance to climb. They refuse, they cling to the realm, or the gods, or love. Illusions. Only the ladder is real. The climb is all there is."

"Always keep your foes confused. If they are never certain who you are or what you want, they cannot know what you are like to do next. Sometimes the best way to baffle them is to make moves that have no purpose, or even seem to work against you."

"What we don't know is what usually gets us killed."

What is honor compared to a woman's love? And what is duty against the feel of a newborn son in your arms? Or a brother's smile?

"For, after all, every one who wishes to gain true knowledge must climb the Hill Difficulty alone, and since there is no royal road to the summit, I must zigzag it in my own way. I slip back many times, I fall, I stand still, I run against the edge of hidden obstacles, I lose my temper and find it again and keep it better, I trudge on, I gain a little, I feel encouraged, I get more eager and climb higher and begin to see the widening horizon. Every struggle is a victory. One more effort and I reach the luminous cloud, the blue depths of the sky, the uplands of my desire."

"Literature is my Utopia. Here I am not disenfranchised. No barrier of the senses shuts me out from the sweet, gracious discourses of my book friends. They talk to me without embarrassment or awkwardness."

"What does this beauty or than music mean to you? You cannot see the waves rolling up the beach or hear their roar. What do they mean to you?' In the most evident sense they mean everything. I cannot fathom or define their meaning any more than I can fathom or define love or religion or goodness."
