Quote #10
The stone is strong, Bran told himself, the roots of the trees go deep, and under the ground the Kings of Winter sit their thrones. So long as those remained, Winterfell remained. It was not dead, just broken. Like me, he thought. I'm not dead either. (70.Bran.99)
We're going a little sentimental here, but Bran's conclusion suggests that even amongst death life goes on. And with all the death prevalent in the novel, life seems all the more valuable, even for Bran who had considered himself broken beyond repair for most of the novel.
