“Even the bravest men fear death and maiming”

“Men's lives have meaning, not their deaths.”

“Her father said there was no shame in being afraid, only in showing your fear. "All men live with fear," he said.”

“- Some men think because they are afraid to do.- There is a difference between fear and caution.”

“Ser Loras lusts for glory as real men lust for women, the least the gods can do is grant him a death worthy of a song.”

“Death should hold no fear for a man as old as me, but it does. Isn't that silly? It is always dark where I am, so why should I fear the darkness? Yet I cannot help but wonder what will follow, when the last warmth leaves my body.”

“The sun will soon be setting, and corpses make poor company by night. These were dark and dangerous men, alive. I doubt that death will have improved them.”
