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.

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.
