strong kings winter
The stone is strong. Bran told himself, the roots of the trees go deep, and under the ground the Kings of Winter sit their thrones. So long as those remained, Winterfell remained. It was not dead, just broken. Like me, he thought. I'm not dead either.
children hush please
The maester smiled...Hush now, child, I'm much older than you. I can....die as I please.
hurt men
When a man was hurt you took him to the maester, but what could you do when your maester was hurt?
choices abandoned friendless
If I die, I die friendless and abandoned. What choice did that leave him, but to live?
mother men tears
Tears, she said scornfully to Sansa as the woman was led from the hall. The woman's weapon, my lady mother used to call them. The man's weapon is a sword. And that tells us all you need to know, doesn't it?
children towers chains
His chains chinked softly. I seldom fling children from towers to improve their health. Yes, I meant for him to die.
dream heart secret
Will holding a secret in your heart make it any less true? If you never tell, never speak of it, will it become only a dream, less than a dream, a nightmare half-remembered? Oh, if only the gods would be so good. (Catelyn)
thinking knighthood dies
They'll kill for that knighthood, but don't ever think they'll die for it.

mother queens men
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)
beautiful eye her-eyes
The Beauty raised her eyes, the only part of her that was truly beautiful.
thinking hair knights
These old knights are more cunning than you think, or they would never have lived to see their first grey hair.
mustache care sound
Have a care how you speak to me, Imp. Doubtless he meant to sound threatening, but that absurd wisp of a mustache ruined the effect.
beautiful children father
I want to make my kingdom beautiful, to fill it with fat men and pretty maids and laughing children. I want my people to smile when they see me ride by, the way Viserys said they smiled for my father. (Daenerys)
