    If it contains a spoiler go ahead and post what book its from and use the spoiler tags.

    Tyrion is quite quotable but I must go with this one from King Robert after he slaps Cersei.

    Cersei: "I shall wear this as a badge of honor."
    King Robert: "You shall wear it in silence or I'll honor you again."

    Very close runner up

    Syrio Forel: "There is only one god and his name is Death. And there is only one thing we say to Death... not today."

    there are so many more, but I suck at remember stuff like that word for word so I went with the basic ones I knew.

    (I'm scared to google ASOIAF quotes until I'm done book 5)

    i guess since I have taken to saying "you know nothing (insert name)","winter is coming" and "a (insert my name here) always pays his debts" into conversations with my friends who read the books as well, they have to go into this thread as well even though I think they may be givens

    Lommy: “What if the wolves come?”
    “Yield,” Arya suggested.

    Sooo many the freshest in my mind are from book 5 since I am reading it
    when someone mentions that dwarf penises supposedly have magical powers Tyrion says: "I have been telling that to young women this whole time" or something like that and I busted out laughing. Also the whole Manderly speech to Davos when he says "The North remembers" got me so pumped.

    book 4, not really a spoiler at all but I'll spoiler it anyways. just read this chapter last night:

    Asha's Uncle trying to convince her not to go to the kingsmoot because she might be killed: "Archmaester Rigney once wrote that history is a wheel, for the nature of man is fundamentally unchanging. What has happened before will perforce happen again, he said."

    Three Rings for the Elven-kings under the sky,
    Seven for the Dwarf-lords in their halls of stone,
    Nine for Mortal Men doomed to die,
    One for the Dark Lord on his dark throne
    In the Land of Mordor where the Shadows lie.
    One Ring to rule them all, One Ring to find them,
    One Ring to bring them all and in the darkness bind them
    In the Land of Mordor where the Shadows lie.

    He paused, and then said in a deep voice,
    "This is the Master-Ring, the One Ring to rule them all.
    This is the One Ring lost many years ago,
    to the great weakening of its maker's power.
    Now, he greatly desires to have it again,
    - but he must NOT get it"

    Can't remember which book it's in or who said it, but it's something along the lines of "I'm grateful that the gods created seven hells, because one wouldn't be big enough to hold both Clegane brothers."

    This one kinda sums up the whole series for me. Book 5 about 400 pages in (there is a spoiler)
    when Wyman Manderly is talking to Davos about when Ned convinced him to call his banners for Robert's rebellion, Ned said "Only one this is certain in this world, and that is winter." Still give me the chills.

    Jojen wanted to go poking around down there, but Hodor said "Hodor" to that, and Bran said "No."

    Old stories are like old friends, she used to say. You have to visit them from time to time.

    "His elk?" said Bran, wonderstruck.
    "His elk?" said Meera, startled.
    "His ravens?" said Jojen.
    "Hodor?" said Hodor.

    Take ship for the Free Cities with my horse and my hammer, spend my time warring and whoring, that's what I was made for.

    when Arya kills the Tickler and is yelling all the questions at him as she stabs him. "Is there gold hidden in the village?" "where is lord Beric?" etc. One of the best moments so far, imo

    rereading the series and

    in the middle of GOT when Tyrion is Catelyn's captive and they're going up the High Road towards the Eyrie, they're attacked by the clansmen and at one point Catelyn is trapped by 3 guys and Tyrion comes up and kills one, while she kills the other and the next line is:

    "The horseman remembered an urgent engagement elsewhere and galloped off suddenly"

    Made me laugh :twocents:

    Forgot the exact quote but a horse is killed by wolves and someone suggests that the wolves are the gods' punishment for their sins. Jaime says, "That must have been an uncommonly sinful horse."

    "Elia of Dorne! You raped her, you killed her, you murdered her children!"
    -The Red Viper
    [/quote]

    One of my favorite scenes.
    "Elia of Dorne," they all heard Ser Gregor say, when they were close enough to kiss. His deep voice boomed within the helm. "I killed her screaming whelp." He thrust his free hand into Oberyn's unprotected face, pushing steel fingers into his eyes. "Then I raped her." Clegane slammed his fist into the Dornishman's mouth, making splinters of his teeth. "Then I smashed her fucking head in like this." As he drew back his huge fist, the blood on his gauntlet seemed to smoke in the cold dawn air. There was a sickening crunch.

    My favorite quote so far, don't know how much foreshadowing it has...

    from book 4

    Jaime's aunt Genna to Jaime:

    "You smile like Gerion and fight like Tyg, and there's some of Kevan in you, else you would not wear that cloak... but Tyrion is Tywin's son, not you."
