“People often claim to hunger for truth, but seldom like the taste when it's served up.”
“I will hurt you for this. I don't know how yet, but give me time. A day will come when you think yourself safe and happy, and suddenly your joy will turn to ashes in your mouth, and you'll know the debt is paid.”
“When you tear out a man's tongue, you are not proving him a liar, you're only telling the world that you fear what he might say.”
“He who hurries through life hurries to his grave.”
I want to weep, she thought. I want to be comforted. I’m so tired of being strong. I want to be foolish and frightened for once. Just for a small while, that’s all …a day … an hour ...
...One day, she promised herself as she lay abed, one day she would allow herself to be less than strong.
But not today. It could not be today.”

jenny_librarian's review against another edition
It’s been 2 weeks since I put it on hold because it was too violently misogynistic and I can’t bring myself to pick it back up.
I liked the show, but the book is just way too much. And too long.
Also, have of the characters are literal children, which makes what happens to them downright horrific. Sansa is like 12, I think Arya is 10…? So the things happening to them are even more disgusting than in the show where they were aged up. I can’t believe how people can read this and not bat an eye at the horrors these kids go through.
