“Perhaps down in his heart Okonkwo was not a cruel man. But his whole life was dominated by fear, the fear of failure and of weakness.

“Oh, my sweet summer child," Old Nan said quietly, "what do you know of fear?

are born and live and die all in darkness while the direwolves grow gaunt and
hungry, and the white walkers move through the woods”
