==Quotes== [[File: Chataya and Alayaya.jpg|thumb|250px|[[Chataya]] and [[Alayaya]] by Amok Β©]] {{Quote|My people hold that there is no shame to be found in the [[pillow house]]. In the Summer Isles, those who are skilled at giving pleasure are greatly esteemed. Many highborn youths and maidens serve for a few years after their flowerings, to honor the gods.{{Ref|ACOK|15}}|[[Chataya]] to [[Tyrion Lannister]]}} {{Quote|'''Olenna''': Margaery, you're clever, be a dear and tell your poor old half-daft grandmother the name of that queer fish from the Summer Isles that puffs up to ten times its own size when you poke it.<br>'''Margaery''': They call them puff fish, Grandmother.<br>'''Olenna''': Of course they do. Summer Islanders have no imagination.{{Ref|ASOS|6}}|[[Olenna Tyrell]] and [[Margaery Tyrell]]}} {{quote|Her favorites were the Summer Islanders, with their skins as smooth and dark as teak. They wore feathered cloaks of red and green and yellow, and the tall masts and white sails of their [[swan ship]]s were magnificent.{{Ref|AFFC|34}}|thoughts of [[Arya Stark]]}} {{Quote|The [[Cinnamon Wind]] was a [[swan ship]] out of [[Tall Trees Town]] on the Summer Isles, where men were black, women were wanton, and even the gods were strange.{{Ref|AFFC|35}}|thoughts of [[Samwell Tarly]]}} {{Quote|All you [[Westeros]]i make a shame of loving. There is no shame in loving. If your [[septon]]s say there is, your [[Faith of the Seven|seven gods]] must be demons. In the isles we know better. Our gods gave us legs to run with, noses to smell with, hands to touch and feel. What mad cruel god would give a man eyes and tell him he must forever keep them shut, and never look at all the beauty in the world?{{Ref|AFFC|35}}|[[Kojja Mo]] to [[Samwell Tarly]]}}
