It's never black and white on 'Game of Thrones.' If you think it's black and white, you're watching it wrong.

It is folly for an eminent man to think of escaping censure, and a weakness to be affected with it. All the illustrious persons of antiquity, and indeed of every age in the world, have passed through this fiery persecution.

In passing, we should note this curious mark of our own age: the only absolute allowed is the absolute insistence that there is no absolute.

It's not catastrophes, murders, deaths, diseases, that age and kill us it's the way people look and laugh, and run up the steps of omnibuses.

In fact, my courage and my bravery at a young age was the thing I was bullied for, a kind of 'Who do you think you are?'

I smoke ten to fifteen cigars a day. At my age I have to hold on to something.

I'm inspired by people who keep on rolling, no matter their age.
