All you Westerosi make a shame of loving. There is no shame in loving. If your septons say there is, your seven gods must be demons. In the isles we know better. Our gods gave us legs to run with, noses to smell with, hands to touch and feel. What mad cruel god would give a man eyes and tell him he must forever keep them shut, and never look at all the beauty in the world?

Americans... are forever searching for love in forms it never takes, in places it can never be. It must have something to do with the vanished frontier.

Kurt Vonnegut

A family is a place where principles are hammered and honed on the anvil of everyday living.

Charles Swindoll

Our prayers for others flow more easily than those for ourselves. This shows we are made to live by charity.

C.S. Lewis

No one can be as calculatedly rude as the British, which amazes Americans, who do not understand studied insult and can only offer abuse as a substitute.

Paul Gallico

The only men who aren't in fear of women's reactions are usually men who aren't born or who are dead.

Warren Farrell

Pride is pleasure arising from a man's thinking too highly of himself.

Baruch (_Benedict de) Spinoza

What we instill in our children will be the foundation upon which they build their future.

Steve Maraboli

A fishing pole is a stick with a hook at one end and a fool on the other

Samuel Johnson

Politics is a highly tribal business.

Nick Clegg

Acquire the courage to believe in yourself. Many of the things that you have been taught were at one time the radical ideas of individuals who had the courage to believe what their own hearts and minds told them was true, rather than accept the common beliefs of their day.

Ching Ning Chu

I'm crazy about my father, he's an amazing man, a real adventurer. He took us with him to travel all over the world. We were in places that were so remote, that white people hardly ever reach them.

Peta Wilson

I think people are sexy when they have a sense of humor, when they are smart, when they have some sense of style, when they are kind, when they express their own opinions, when they are creative, when they have character.

Suzanne Vega
