Quotes 

• Tyrion Lannister : And Sansa? I hear she's alive and well.

  Jon Snow : She is.

  Tyrion Lannister : Does she miss me terribly?

  [Jon stares at Tyrion] 

  Tyrion Lannister : A sham marriage... and unconsummated.

  Jon Snow : I didn't ask.

  Tyrion Lannister : Well, it was. Or wasn't. Anyway... she's much smarter than she lets on.

  Jon Snow : She's starting to let on.

  Tyrion Lannister : Good.

• Tyrion Lannister : I trust the eyes of an honest man more than I trust what everybody knows.

• 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.

• Daenerys Targaryen : I was born to rule the Seven Kingdoms, and I will!

  Jon Snow : You'll be ruling over a graveyard if we don't defeat the Night's King.

  Tyrion Lannister : The war against my sister has already begun. You can't expect us to halt hostilities and join you in fighting... whatever you saw beyond the wall.

  Davos Seaworth : You don't believe him? I understand that, it sounds like nonsense. But if destiny has brought Daenerys Targaryen back to our shores, it has also made Jon Snow King in the North. You were the first to bring Dothraki to Westeros? He is the first to make allies of wildlings and Northmen. He was named Lord Commander of the Night's Watch, he was named King in the North, not because of his birthright. He HAS no birthright, he's a damn bastard! All those hard sons of bitches chose him as their leader, because they believed in him. All those things you don't believe in, he faced those things, he fought those things for the good of his people. He risked his life for his people. He took a knife in the heart for his people. He gave his own...

  [Davos trails off as Jon looks at him] 

  Davos Seaworth : If we don't put aside our enmities and band together, we will die. And then it doesn't matter whose skeleton sits on the Iron Throne.

  Tyrion Lannister : If it doesn't matter, then you might as well kneel. Swear your allegiance to Queen Daenerys, help her to defeat my sister, and together, our armies will protect the North.

  Jon Snow : [irritably]  There's no time for that. There's no time for any of this! While we stand here debating...

  Tyrion Lannister : It takes no time to bend the knee. Pledge your sword to her cause.

  Jon Snow : [angrily]  And why would I do that?

  [Jon speaks to Daenerys] 

  Jon Snow : I mean no offense, Your Grace, but I don't know you. As far as I can tell, your claim to the throne rests entirely on your father's name, and my own father fought to overthrow the Mad King. The lords of the North placed their trust in me to lead them, and I will continue to do so as well as I can.

• 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.

• Tyrion Lannister : I came down here to brood over my failure to predict the Greyjoy attack. You're making it difficult. You look a lot better brooding than I do. You make me feel like I'm failing at brooding over failing.

• Jon Snow : My bannermen think I'm a fool for coming here.

  Tyrion Lannister : Of course they do. If I was your Hand, I would have advised against it. General rule of thumb - Stark men don't fare well when they travel south.

  Jon Snow : True... but I'm not a Stark.

• Jon Snow : Right now, you and I and Cersei and everyone else; we're children playing at a game, screaming that the rules aren't fair.

  Daenerys Targaryen : [Turns to Tyrion]  You told me you liked this man

  Tyrion Lannister : I do

  Daenerys Targaryen : In the time since he's met me, he's refused to call me queen, he's refused to bow, and now he's calling me a child.

  Tyrion Lannister : I believe he's calling *all* of us children. Figure of speech.

• Tyrion Lannister : [to Jon Snow, who fell down as dragons swooped by overhead]  I'd say you get used to them... but you never really do.
