We don’t kill out of fear. We kill to save lives.[to Ciri]
Soon, when my last bit of business is done, I will indeed be an ordinary mortal man.[to Stagg]
So, you’re not afraid of dying?[Thomas Shepherd]No. Everything that is, once wasn’t and soon enough won’t be. No, what I fear is that, while I’m alive, I’ll never understand my purpose.[Vision]
Mortality is a gift. It makes you appreciate life.[to Maze]

Yeah, so maybe I do go psycho. Maybe. But even that’s better than definitely dying.[Talia Yang]No! It’s not! Not at all. Most just think of the violence. The tics, the rage, the outbursts. But what’s worse is you stop being you. Losing yourself… That’s worse than death.[Weak Kingsley]
The Stranger has visited me more times than I can count, Grand Maester. I assure you, he cares little whether my eyes are open or closed.
Nothing’s worth anything to dead men.
Nothing f***s you harder than time.
Are you dying?[Ciri]My sweet child, when I go, it will be far more dramatic than this.[Queen Calanthe]
I worry about you mages more and more. Perhaps humans just shouldn’t live for so long.[to Istredd]
