Olenna Tyrell: That was Joffrey's sword, wasn't it? Not that he ever used it. What did he call it?Jaime Lannister: Widow's Wail.Olenna Tyrell: He really was a c**t, wasn't he?
Jaime Lannister: There are always lessons in failures.Olenna Tyrell: Yes. You must be very wise by now.Jaime Lannister: My father always said I was a slow learner.
Olenna Tyrell: It's done.Jaime Lannister: It is.Olenna Tyrell: And now the rains weep o'er our halls.
Don't fight in the North or the South. Fight every battle, everywhere, always, in your mind. Everyone is your enemy, everyone is your friend. Every possible series of events is happening all at once. Live that way and nothing will surprise you. Everything that happens will be something that you've seen before.
Tyrion Lannister: I'd very much like to believe that Jon Snow is wrong. But a wise man once said that you should never believe a thing simply because you want to believe it.Daenerys Targaryen: Which wise man said this?Tyrion Lannister: I don't remember.Daenerys Targaryen: Are you trying to present your own statements as ancient wisdom?Tyrion Lannister: I would never do that. To you.
I trust the eyes of an honest man more than I trust what everybody knows.
Jon Snow: How do I convince people who don't know me that an enemy they don't believe in is coming to kill them all?Tyrion Lannister: Good question.Jon Snow: I know it's a good question. I'm looking for an answer.Tyrion Lannister: People's minds aren't made for problems that large. White walkers, the Night King, Army of the Dead. It's almost a relief to confront a comfortable, familiar monster like my sister.
Sometimes tragedies are necessary to restore order and rational leadership.
Euron Greyjoy: There's nothing quite like it, is there? The love of the people. Though I suppose you wouldn't know.Jaime Lannister: This same mob spat at my sister not long ago. And if you turn on us, they'll cheer to see your head mounted on a spike.Euron Greyjoy: Or yours. They just like severed heads, really.
Missandei: You stand in the presence of Daenerys Stormborn of House Targaryen, rightful heir to the Iron Throne, rightful Queen of the Andals and the First Men, Protector of the Seven Kingdoms, the Mother of Dragons, the Khaleesi of the Great Grass Sea, the Unburnt, the Breaker of Chains.Davos Seaworth: This is Jon Snow.Davos Seaworth: He's King in the North.
Melisandre: My time whispering in the ears of kings has come to an end.Lord Varys: Oh, I doubt that. Give us common folk one taste of power, we're like the lion who tasted man. Nothing is ever so sweet again.
Tyrion Lannister: At some point, I want to hear how a Night's Watch recruit became King in the North.Jon Snow: As long as you tell me how a Lannister became Hand to Daenerys Targaryen.Tyrion Lannister: A long and bloody tale. To be honest, I was drunk for most of it.
Daenerys Targaryen: We will bring peace back to Westeros.Olenna Tyrell: Peace? Do you think that's what we had under your father? Or his father? Or his? Peace never lasts, my dear. Will you take a bit of advice from an old woman? He's a clever man, your Hand. I've known a great many clever men. I've outlived them all. You know why? I ignored them. The lords of Westeros are sheep. Are you a sheep? No. You're a dragon. Be a dragon.
Daenerys Targaryen: I am not here to be queen of the ashes.Olenna Tyrell: That's very nice to hear. Of course, I can't remember a queen who was better loved than my granddaughter. The common people loved her. The nobles loved her. And what is left of her now? Ashes.
Daenerys Targaryen: Swear this to me, Varys. If you ever think I'm failing the people, you won't conspire behind my back. You'll look me in the eye as you have done today, and you'll tell me how I'm failing them.Lord Varys: I swear it, my queen.Daenerys Targaryen: And I swear this, if you ever betray me, I'll burn you alive.Lord Varys: I would expect nothing less from the Mother of Dragons.
Tyrion Lannister: Lord Varys has proven himself a loyal servant.Daenerys Targaryen: Proven himself loyal? Quite the opposite. If he dislikes one monarch, he conspires to crown the next one. What kind of a servant is that?Lord Varys: The kind the realm needs. Incompetence should not be rewarded with blind loyalty.
In my experience, the surest way to a woman's heart is with a gift. A priceless gift.
You have to be smarter than Father. You need to be smarter than Robb. I loved them, I miss them, but they made stupid mistakes, and they both lost their heads for it.
I don't plan on knitting by the fire while men fight for me. I might be small, Lord Glover, and I might be a girl, but I am every bit as much a Northerner as you.
Shall we begin?
Sandor Clegane: It's my f***ing luck I end up with a band of fire worshippers.Beric Dondarrion: Aye. Almost seems like divine justice.Sandor Clegane: There's no divine justice, you dumb c**t. If there was, you'd be dead and that girl would be alive.
Thoros of Myr: Why are you always in such a foul mood?Sandor Clegane: Experience.
Lannister Soldier: Why is a nice girl on her own heading to King's Landing?Arya Stark: I'm going to kill the queen.
Petyr Baelish: Why aren't you happy? What do you want that you do not have?Sansa Stark: At the moment, peace and quiet. No need to seize the last word, Lord Baelish. I'll assume it was something clever.
Cersei Lannister: I decline your proposal.Euron Greyjoy: Why?Cersei Lannister: You're not trustworthy. You've broken promises to allies before and murdered them at the nearest opportunity. You murdered your own brother.Euron Greyjoy: You should try it. Feels wonderful.
When people ask you what happened here, tell them the North remembers. Tell them winter came for House Frey.
