“-No es fácil, Valtario... No lo es.
-Mi padre siempre decía que las cosas siempre son fáciles, y que lo difícil es convencerse de ello.
-Tu padre no fue rey.
-Podría haberlo sido. Cualquier noble godo puede serlo.
El silencio es ahora fuego. Ambos se miden con la mirada.”
José Soto Chica

George R.R. Martin
“The day will come when you need them to respect you, even fear you a little. Laughter is poison to fear.”
George R.R. Martin, A Game of Thrones
