Quotes 

• Cersei Lannister : Uncle Kevan, in light of your position as commander of the Lannister armies, it would please the king for you to serve as his Master of War. No man living better deserves the title.

  Kevan Lannister : That is kind of you to say. I would like to hear it from the king himself.

  Cersei Lannister : The king is very busy at this moment.

  Kevan Lannister : He should be here, learning what it means to rule.

  Cersei Lannister : He is learning. On this occasion, in his capacity as ruler, he has asked me to speak on his behalf.

  Kevan Lannister : I returned to the capital to pay my respect to my brother, and to you, and to serve the king. I did not return to the capital to serve as your puppet, to watch you stack the Small Council with sycophants. Sending your own brother away so you may...

  Cersei Lannister : My brother has left the capital to lead a sensitive diplomatic mission.

  Kevan Lannister : What mission?

  Cersei Lannister : That is not your concern as Master of War.

  Kevan Lannister : I do not recognize your authority to dictate what is and what is not my concern. You are the queen mother. Nothing more.

  Cersei Lannister : You would abandon your king in his time of need?

  Kevan Lannister : If he wants to send for me, I will be waiting for him... at Casterly Rock.

• Jaime Lannister : [Myrcella's necklace sent to them mounted on the neck of a serpent]  It's a threat.

  Cersei Lannister : Of course it's a threat! Our daughter's alone in Dorne surrounded by people who hate our family.

  [mocking him:] 

  Cersei Lannister : "It's a threat."

  Jaime Lannister : No note?

  Cersei Lannister : They blame us for the death of Oberyn and his sister and every other tragedy that's befallen their cursed country.

  [rises in fury] 

  Cersei Lannister : I will burn their cities to the ground if they touch her!

  Jaime Lannister : Softer.

  Cersei Lannister : What?

  Jaime Lannister : [whispers]  Not so loud.

  Cersei Lannister : Our daughter's in danger, and you're worried I'm speaking too loudly?

  Jaime Lannister : [whispers]  The world can't know she's our daughter.

  Cersei Lannister : Then don't call her your daughter. You've never been a father to her.

  Jaime Lannister : If I were a father to any of my children, they'd be stoned in the street.

  Cersei Lannister : And what has your caution brought? Our oldest child murdered at his own wedding. Our only daughter shipped off to Dorne. Our baby boy set to marry that smirking whore from Highgarden!
