“The damned thing’s as tall as I am,” Tyrion muttered in a low voice. “Half a chalice and Joff will be falling down drunk.”

“If I am ever a queen, I’ll make them love me.” — Sansa Stark (via fuckyeahasoiafquotes)

“Do you have any notion what happens when a city is sacked, Sansa? No, you wouldn’t, would you? All you know of life you learned from singers, and there is such a dearth of good sacking songs.” — Cersei Lannister (via relativelydark)

“They are children, Sansa thought. They are silly little girls, even Elinor. They’ve never seen a battle, they’ve never seen a man die, they know nothing. Their dreams were full of songs and stories, the way hers had been before Joffrey cut her father’s head off. Sansa pitied them. Sansa envied them.” — A Storm of Swords (Part I) - George R. R. Martin (via littlebird-)

“Sansa stared at him, seeing him for the first time. He was wearing a padded crimson doublet patterned with lions and a cloth-of-gold cape with a high collar that framed his face. She wondered how she could have ever thought him handsome. His lips were soft and red as the worms you found after a rain, and his eyes were vain and cruel. ‘I hate you,’ she whispered.” — George R. R. Martin, A Game of Thrones (via no-rhythm)

 But this was the Red Keep, this was King’s Landing, this was the court of King Joffrey Baratheon, the First of His Name, and if there was one thing that Sansa Stark had learned here, it was mistrust.

- A Storm of Swords by George R.R. Martin

“Sansa felt that she ought to say something. What was it that Septa Mordane used to tell her? A lady’s armor is her courtesy, that was it. She donned her armor and said, ‘I’m sorry my lady mother took you captive, my lord.’” — A Clash of Kings by George R.R. Martin. (I tried to choose as non-spoilery a passage as possible to quote.) Ugh, Tumblr, I’m rereading this and I just have SO MANY FEELINGS about Sansa and how she resists from within — within the system and within herself. Sansa’s just as brave as any of her siblings. I’m never going to understand the hate she gets. (via alliterate)
