winterWarg Posted May 22, 2012 Share Posted May 22, 2012 So what's your favorite Tyrion quote of the series so far(i.e,until ASoS)? What, according to you,is the funniest, wisest or most philosophical thing he's said?Mine has to be :'He wondered how many lives had been snuffed out by that fart'.I'm leaving out the context to minimize the spoiler, cos i realize folks will be at different stages in AsoS.I know it's not technically something he said, and its just a thought...but I found it hilarious, not to mention sad...cos it probably is true. An entire story could have been re-written right there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ckal Posted May 22, 2012 Share Posted May 22, 2012 This should be a great thread. There are so many and I'm ashamed to say I have forgotten many, but one that will always stick with me is the:"your joy will turn to ashes in your mouth, and you will know the debt is paid" quote to Cersei. Chilling stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jon Whitewolf Posted May 29, 2012 Share Posted May 29, 2012 I agree with ckal because when you read these words you know that something bad is going to happen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Schlacko Posted May 30, 2012 Share Posted May 30, 2012 Who you lie with is no matter to me … although it doesn't seem quite just that you should open your legs for one brother and not the other. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Wood of the Morning Posted June 10, 2012 Share Posted June 10, 2012 Tyrion's got some of the best quotes in the series, here's a few off the top of my head."I don't even know who my mother was," Jon said. "Some woman, no doubt. Most of them are."“My sister has mistaken me for a mushroom. She keeps me in the dark and feeds me shit.” “Noseless and Handless, the Lannister Boys.” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Wood of the Morning Posted June 10, 2012 Share Posted June 10, 2012 Oh also this one,"As children Elia and I were inseparable, much like your own brother and sister."Gods I hope not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gandalf the Grey Posted September 2, 2012 Share Posted September 2, 2012 Who you lie with is no matter to me … although it doesn't seem quite just that you should open your legs for one brother and not the other.The follow-up:I could never understand what you saw in him, apart from your own reflection.

Omnievul Posted September 19, 2012 Share Posted September 19, 2012 “Lord Littlefinger.” Podrick managed a quick look at his face, then hastily dropped his eyes. “I meant, Lord Petyr. Lord Baelish. The master of coin. ““You make him sound a crowd."I was also in public when I read that line and I felt really awkward because I was laughing like an idiot by myself.

clydas Posted September 27, 2012 Share Posted September 27, 2012 Talking to Lord Tywin about Joffrey's marriage costs:"[...]The entire fish market is gone, and both the River Gate and the King's gate are splintered from the battering Stannis gave them and should be replaced. I shudder to think of the cost." If you do shit gold, Father, find a privy and get busy, he wanted to say, but he knew better.And on the very same page (middle book spoiler):"I will find your money.""You will," his father promised, "and while you are about it, see if you can find your wife's bed as well."[...]"I have, thank you. It's that piece of furniture betwenn the window and the hearth, with the velvet canopy and the mattress stuffed with goose down." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What, according to you,is the funniest, wisest or most philosophical thing he's said?Mine has to be :'He wondered how many lives had been snuffed out by that fart'.oh yes that was a brilliant one, typical Tyrion :cool4:he has a lot of great witty lines yet the one that has really stuck in my head is from AGOT when he says"most people would rather believe a lie then face a hard truth"there is real wisdom in that statement and i find a very realistic take on the world, being the realist i am.
