并不是魔幻情节和远古世纪的粉, 喜欢这本书的很大理由在于语言的华丽.
- The stars shone down upon the mountains as bright and merciless as truth
- I am the sword in the darkness. I am the watcher on the walls. I am the fire that burns against the cold, the light that brings the dawn, the horn that wakes the sleepers, the shield that guards the realms of men.
- Fear cuts deeper than swords
以及Tyrion Lannister特辑:
- And I have a tender spot in my heart for cripples and bastards and broken things (broken戳中泪点)
- All dwarfs may be bastards, yet not all bastards need be dwarfs.....and for just a moment Tyrion Lannister stood tall like a king.
- If they want to give you a name take it make it your own. Then they can't hurt you with it anymore.
- Never forget what you are, for surely the world will not. Make it your strength. Then it can never be your weakness. Armor yourself in it, and it will never be used to hurt you.
那些不时出现的大写:
- DON'T YOU SEE?
- THE KING IN THE NORTH!
全书印象最深的却是这平平淡淡有点老套的一句:
The first sword of Braavos does not run.
Syrio Forel, you are the true knight.
