Quote by George R.R. Martin

“«Ti porti addosso l’onore come se fosse un’armatura, Stark. Tu credi che ti tenga al sicuro, ma tutto quello che fa è pesarti sulla schiena e impacciarti i movimenti.»”

“I’m the kid (and the man) who doesn’t raise his hand. Whenever I do, I regret it. Better to keep quiet, to work out my rejection with fear and trembling, and to keep hunting for a safe place where I’m never confronted with my own insignificance. And yet, at war with that desire to be invisible is a yearning to be seen and known and valued.”

“To Time. (1615) Thou Register of old Antiquities, Observer of the worlds iniquities, Surveying life from birth till Death intoombe, From Adam's making, to the day of doom: That in thy restless cunning dost admit Of actions lawful, or of things unfit, And hast thy head behind of purpose ball'd, Because thou never wilt be back recall'd; But wear'st a lock before I understand, On which I never yet could lay my hand. I have expected (thou grave ancient father) Thy helping hand, and I protest the rather, Because they say that Time by turns doth go, And hitherto I have not found it so: Therefore for some good turn, one of these days, I challenge thee, or I'll disprove thy praise, And I write of thee according as I find, That thorow age thou art both ball'd and blind; Find out a time, good Time, for to relieve me, For at this time, Time very bad doth grieve mee.”
