If you would take a man’s life, you owe it to him look into his eyes and hear his final words. And if you cannot bear to do that, then perhaps the man does not deserve to die.
A ruler who hides behind paid executioners son forgets what death is.
Where the king does, the realm follows...
Some old wounds never truly heal, and bleed again at the slightest word.
I swear to you, sitting a throne is a thousand times harder than winning one.
They say it grows so cold up here in winter that a man’s laughter freezes in his throat and chokes him to death.
A bastard had to learn to notice things, to read the truth that people hid behind their eyes.
Never forget what you are, for surely the world will not. Make it your strength. Then it can never be your weakness. Armor yourself in it, and it will never be used to hurt you.
...a mind needs books as a sword needs a whetstone, if it is to keep its edge.
Let them see that their words can cut you, and you´ll never be free of the mockery. If they want to give you a name, take it, make it your own. Then they can’t hurt you with it anymore.
The common people pray for rain, healthy children, and a summer that never ends...IT is not matter to them if the high lords play their game of thrones, so long as they are left in peace...They never are.
Distrusting me was the wisest thing you’ve done.
When you play the game of thrones, you win or you die. There is no middle ground.
Castles are not friendly places for the frail.
