“Some people center the universe around themselves; while making other people nothing but decorations to their existence. "I will do this and then I will do that and then people will think this about me and then people will think that about me, and then I will add that person to my life when the convenient time arrives, and this person over here would make a very convenient addition as well..." They build their own thrones for themselves, and add decorations all around their thrones. The problem with that is: it does not bring happiness. A throne must be built for you; it must not be you who builds your own throne. If so, everything that you think you are is only an illusion! And illusions dissolve one day. Poof!”

“In life, we are all playing the game of thrones one way or the other”
Ikechukwu Izuakor

George R.R. Martin
“I never win anything," Dolorous Edd complained. "The gods always smiled on Watt, though. When the wildlings knocked him off the Bridge of Skulls, somehow he landed in a nice depp proof of water. How lucky was that, missing all those rocks?"
"Was it a long fall?" Green wanted to know. "Did landing in the pool of water save his life?"
"No," said Dolorous Edd. "He was dead already, from that axe in his head. Still, it was pretty lucky, missing the rocks.”
George R. R. Martin

Lev Grossman
“One day you will see that it is a mistake to love an empire, or a throne, or a crown, because those things cannot love. They can only die.”
Lev Grossman, The Bright Sword

“A crown of thrones and stars to show the world that we are as much of dreamers as they are but we are merciless and restless in achieving our goals”
Raneem yacoub throne of deception

“The brugh is full of turned-over tables and rotting fruit. A crack runs through the ground to the split throne, with its wilted flowers. Cardan spreads his hands, and the earth heals along the seam, rock and stone bubbling up to fill it back in. Then he twists his fingers, and the divided throne grows anew, blooming with briars, sprouting into two separate thrones where there was once only one.

'Do you like it?' he asks me, which seems a little like asking if someone enjoys the crown of stars they conjured from the sky.

'Impressive,' I choke out.”
Holly Black, The Queen of Nothing

George R.R. Martin
“The only game. The game of thrones.”
George R.R. Martin, A Storm of Swords

Holly Black
“At the centre of the tent rests three thrones- two large and one small. They seem to be sculptures of ice, with flowers and leaves frozen inside them. The large thrones are unoccupied, but a blue-skinned girl sits on the small one, a crown of icicles on her head and a golden bridle around her mouth and throat. She looks to be only a year or two older than Oak and is dressed in a column of grey silk. Her gaze is on her fingers, which move restlessly against one another. Her nails are bitten short and crusted with a thin rime of blood.”
Holly Black, The Queen of Nothing

George R.R. Martin
“When you play the game of thrones, you win or you die...”
George R.R. Martin, A Game of Thrones
