Quotes:
“‘The collar is supposed to remind the maester of the realm he serves… a chain needs all sorts of metals, and a land needs all sorts of people… the Night’s Watch needs all sorts, too. Why else have rangers and stewards and builders?’” (Martin 450).
This quote allows insight to the maesters and the community as a whole. A maester must forge each link of his chain by learning a particular skill. People in a community all work together with their own individual skills to form something more significant. This analogy could also have a negative context, implying that reliance on others is restricting.
“If she choked on the blood or retched up the flesh, the omens were less favorable, the child might be stillborn,or come forth weak, deformed, or female” (Martin 490).
The quote is bizarre as the even the khals bow to the khaleen, old wise women who used to be khaleesies, but a female child is seen as deformed. This is because a khal is selected by strength not by blood and girls are not raised to fight like the men are.
"’Joffrey is not your son,’ he wanted to say, but the words did not come… so Ned bent his head and wrote, but where the king had said ‘my son Joffrey’ he scrawled ‘my heir’ instead. The deceit made him feel soiled. The lies we tell for love" (Martin
