dream sleep night
Sleep is a little death, dreams the whisperings of the Other, who would drag us all into his eternal night.
dream sleep dark
He did not know which was more painful, the waking or the sleeping. When he slept, he dreamed: dark disturbing dreams of blood and broken promises. When he woke, there was nothing to do but think, and his waking thoughts were worse than nightmares.
dream heart break
You must put these dreams aside, they will only break your heart.
dream our-dreams
Why do our dreams become so much smaller when they finally come true?
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)
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.
dream morning writing
My dreams are the usual incoherent nonsense. Like most writers, at some point in my career I thought, well, I have these great dreams but I always forget them in the morning so I’ll leave a pad on my bedside table so I can write it down, and then you have some incredible dream and you write it down and the next morning you wake up and you’ve written ‘purple socks’.
dream sleep needs
I need to sleep, but fear to dream.
dream night targaryens
In my dreams, I kill him every night,' Robert admitted. 'A thousand deaths will still be less than he deserves'.
dream wish
It had been more of a wish, actually, but it sounded better to call it a dream.
dream kings hands
What the King dreams, the Hand builds.
dream children character
The truth of it is, writers do have peculiar relationships with their characters. They are our children in more senses than one. They are born of our imaginations, carry much of ourselves in them, and embody whatever dreams we dream of immortality.
girl dream song
They are children, Sansa thought. They are silly little girls, even Elinor. They’ve never seen a battle, they’ve never seen a man die, they know nothing. Their dreams were full of songs and stories, the way hers had been before Joffrey cut her fathers head off. Sansa pitied them. Sansa envied them.
dream eye kissing
Drifting snowflakes brushed her face as light as lover’s kisses, and melted on her cheeks. At the center of the garden, beside the statue of the weeping woman that lay broken and half-buried on the ground, she turned her face up to the sky and closed her eyes. She could feel the snow on her lashes, taste it on her lips. It was the taste of Winterfell. The taste of innocence. The taste of dreams.
