乔治老爷子的《冰与火之歌》可以说是无人不知无人不晓了吧，但才高八斗的乔老爷子也是有烦恼滴，他曾在于另一位文学巨擘的斯蒂芬金的对话中，真心问道：老铁，你的书到底为啥写的那么快？

斯蒂芬金客观的回答：No

听到斯蒂芬金6个月写三本书而乔老爷子6个月只能写出来3个章节，大家就应该直到，乔老爷子写书虽然慢，但是，乔老爷子遣词造句都十分高级。不信，你就来看看下面这些《冰与火之歌》中的经典对白。

"When the snows fall and the white winds blow, the lone wolf dies but the pack survives."

“当大雪降下，冷风吹起，独行狼死，群聚狼生。”

“A ruler who hides behind paid executioners soon forgets what death is.”

“统治者若是躲在幕后，付钱给刽子手执行，很快就会忘记死亡为何物。”

"When you play the game of thrones, you win or you die. There is no middle ground." 

“在权力的游戏之中，你不当赢家，就只有死路一条，没有中间地带。”

“The only way to keep your people loyal is to make certain they fear you more than they do the enemy.”

“让臣民保持忠诚的唯一办法就是确保他们害怕你胜过敌人。”

“Always keep your foes confused. If they are never certain who you are or what you want, they cannot know what you are like to do next. Sometimes the best way to baffle them is to make moves that have no purpose, or even seem to work against you. Remember that, Sansa, when you come to play the game”

“记住，永远都要让你的敌人迷惑，永远都要让他们猜不透你的打算、看不清你的为人，这样你真正的目的就不会暴露。很多时候，最好的办法就是做一些没有明显好处的事，甚至是一些表面上看来有损于自己利益的事。珊莎，当你日后加入到游戏中来时，请记得这第一课。”

“There is no creature on earth half so terrifying as a truly just man.”

这世上再没有谁比一个绝对刚正不阿的人更可怕

“Why is it always the innocents who suffer most, when you high lords play your game of thrones?”

“为何在你们这些王公贵族的权力游戏里面，永远是无辜的人受苦最多？”

“Power resides where men believe it resides. No more and no less.”
“A shadow on the wall,” Varys murmured,“yet shadows can kill. And ofttimes a very small man can cast a very large shadow.”

“力量存在于人心，人相信什么是力量，什么就是力量，不多也不少”“力量就像墙上的影子，”瓦里斯喃喃道，“但影子却能杀人。而且，即便是矮小人物，也能投射出硕大的影子。”

“ 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.”

“总有一天，当你自以为平安快活时，喜乐会在嘴里化成灰烬，到那时候，你将明白债已偿还。”

然而小编最喜欢的那一句还是“兰尼斯特有债必还。”
