Power surged through him: unfettered power, unimaginable power. It coursed through him and gave life to his maddened cry, feeding it, making it unnecesssary even to breathe. Deeper and deeper his screm became, until it was the primal voice of the very land itself. It was raw, searing. It was the energy of making and undoing, and he had unleashed it. Derek Donais
About This Quote

In his novel "A Game of Thrones" by George R.R. Martin, the character Robert Jordan tells the story of how he first became a powerful sorcerer named Tarly. Before he met Daenerys Targaryen, he had no magical ability whatsoever. He was weak.

His magic was controlled by fear and obedience to others. However, after meeting Daenerys, she taught him how to control his fear and make his magic work for him rather than against him. Once he mastered this power, he used it to change himself into an invincible warrior-mage who could beat any opponent at their own game.
