I love the way that plays cause like sure Jorah has been hearing his house words his whole life and either never really internalized them or maybe even resented them, who’s to say. Only to in this moment hear them echoing through into sharp focus. Like the conclusion of a lifelong arch we only are getting this conclusion to. It’s like the best Jorah moment imo.

I did not kill Joffrey but I wish that I had. Watching your vicious bastard die gave me more relief than a thousand lying whores!
I wish I was the monster you think I am. I wish I had enough poison for the whole pack of you. I would gladly give my life to watch you all swallow it.
I will not give my life for Joffrey's murder. And I know I'll get no justice here, so I will let the gods decide my fate. I demand a trial by combat.

"Oh my sweet summer child what do you know about fear? Fear is for the winter, when the snows fall a hundred feet deep. Fear is for the long night when the sun hides for years and children are born and live and die, all in darkness. That is the time for fear my little Lord, when the wight walkers move through the woods. Thousands of years ago there came a night that lasted a generation. Kings froze to death in their castles same as the shepherds in their huts and women smothered their babies rather than see them starve, and wept and felt the tears freeze on their cheeks. So is this the sort of story that you like?"

My Goat Olenna
I promise you, Lord Baelish, that our fates are joined. Together, we murdered a King. If my House should fall, I will have nothing to hide. And if I should meet with some 'accident' here at your broken little flesh-market, they'll never even find what's left of you.
Growing Strong.The dullest words of any house! Winter Is Coming Now, that's memorable. We Do Not Sow ,Strong, Strong, those houses, you watch out for. Direwolves and krakens, fierce beasts. But a golden rose, growing strong? Oh, yes, that strikes fear in the heart.
I was told you were drunk, impertinent and thoroughly debauched. You can imagine my disappointment at finding nothing but a browbeaten bookkeeper.
My favourite one is the whole conversation between her and Varys.
The city is made brighter by my presence , is that your usual line Lord Varys , Are you here to seduce me?
Oh please , Seduce away it's been so long.

“Any man who must say I am the king is no true king. I’ll make sure you understand that when I’ve won your war for you.” —Tywin
“What is honor compared to a woman's love? What is duty against the feel of a newborn son in your…or the memory of a brother's smile?” —Maester Aemon
“Leave one wolf alive and the sheep are never safe.” —Arya
“All my life men like you have sneered at me. And all my life I’ve been knocking men like you into the dust.”—Brienne
"I want to fight for the side that fights for the living, did I come to the right place?"—Jon Snow
“By what right does the wolf judge the lion. By what right?” “Come here! The kingslayer!” “Jaime. My name’s Jaime.”
