The true horrors of human history derive not from orcs and Dark Lords, but from ourselves.

Men see what they expect to see.

Why is it always the innocents who suffer most, when you high lords play your game of thrones?

I feel satisfaction at the end of the day when I've written a scene that I really like or when I write a good line of dialogue that I read out to my wife or something like that. But there's also days where it's just bloody agony and I go, 'ugh, this is such crap! Why did I think I had any talent?

When the snows fall and the white winds blow, the lone wolf dies but the pack survives.

Clean hands, Sansa. Whatever you do, make certain your hands are clean." ~ Lord Petyr Baelish, Littlefinger

All dwarfs may be bastards yet not all bastards are dwarfs.
