“I keep thinking about this river somewhere, with the water moving really fast. And these two people in the water, trying to hold onto each other, holding on as hard as they can, but in the end it's just too much. The current's too strong. They've got to let go, drift apart.

“I'll tell you a secret.
Something they don't teach you in your temple.

You will never be lovelier than you are now.
We will never be here again.”
― David Benioff
