"Words. Words are wind. Why do you think I abandoned Dragonstone and sailed to the Wall, Lord Snow?"
"I am no lord, sire. You came because we sent for you, I hope. Though I could not say why you took so long about it,"
Surprisingly, Stannis smiled at that. "You're bold enough to be a Stark. Yes, I should have come sooner. If not for my Hand, I might not have come at all. Lord Seaworth is a man of humble birth, but he reminded me of my duty, when all I could think of was my rights. I had the cart before the horse, Davos said. I was trying to win the throne to save the kingdom, when I should have been trying to save the kingdom to win the throne." Stannis pointed north. "There is where I'll find the foe that I was born to fight."
-from A Storm of Swords by George R. R. Martin
