Nothing makes the past a sweeter place to visit than the prospect of imminent death.

Aemon

Maester Aemon: If the day should ever come when your Lord father had to choose between honor on the one hand and his family on the other, what would he do?
Jon: He would do whatever is right no matter what.
Maester Aemon: Then Lord Stark is one man in 10,000. Most are not so strong.

That's what I do. I drink and I know things.

Tyrion

Tywin: I always thought you were a stunted fool. Perhaps I was wrong.
Tyrion: Half wrong. I'm new to strategy, but if we are going to be surrounded by three armies, it appears we cannot stay here.

Robert was crazed, beat his hands bloody on the wall. All the things men do to show you that they care.

Cersei

They'll be out in droves, looking for me in the wrong place. Word has probably gotten to my father by now. He'll be offering a handsome reward. Everyone knows a Lannister always pays his debts.

Tyrion

Are you a sheep? No. You're a dragon. Be a dragon.

Olenna

Jaime: Shhh...Listen. Do you hear them? How many do you think are in there with him. Guess.
Jory: Three, four.
Jaime: He likes to do this while I'm on duty. Makes me listen while he insults my sister.
Jory: Forgive me my Lord...
Jaime: Why do I have to forgive you, have you wronged me?

Ned: Stannis is a commander. He's lead many to war, twice. He destroyed the Greyjoy fleet.
Renly: Yes, he's a good soldier. Everyone knows that. So was Robert. Tell me something. Do you still believe good soldiers make good kings?
Ned: I will not dishonor Robert's last hours by shedding blood in his halls, and dragging frightened children from their beds.

Robert: The girl, Daenerys, you were right. Varys, Littlefinger, my bother, worthless. No one to tell me right but you . Only you. Let her live. Stop it if it's not too late.
Ned: I will.
Robert: And my son, help him Ned, make him better than me.

Turns out, far too much has been written about great men and not nearly enough about morons. Doesn't seem right.

Tyrion

How am I supposed to sit here planning a war, when you're over there looking like that?

Robb Stark

Tis a big and beautiful world. Most of us live and die in the same corner where we were born and never get to see any of it. I don't want to be most of us.

Oberyn

I’m going to kill the queen.
