You know I've always considered women to be people.

He pushed away from her and raised his arm, forcing his stump into her face. "A Hand without a hand? A bad jape, sister. Don't ask me to rule.
kings boys light

moving past men
Time is different for a tree than for a man. Sun and soil and water, these are the things a weirwood understands, not days and years and centuries. For men, time is a river. We are trapped in its flow, hurtling from past to present, always in the same direction. The lives of trees are different. They root and grow and die in one place, and that river does not move them. The oak is the acorn, the acorn is the oak.

crush dream thinking
My biggest dream was to ruin the lives of my readers and crush their souls... And I really think that worked out pretty well for me.
eye men swings
The man who passes the sentence should swing the sword. Look her in the eyes before you kill her. See her tears, hear her last words. You owe her that much at least." - Eddard Stark
men knowing ifs
Jaime smiled knowingly. Men will read all sorts of things into a knowing smile if you let them.
dragons ifs
...if you dance with dragons, you must expect to burn.
men glasses tongue
You'll find truth in your looking glass, not on the tongues of men.
