George R.R. Martin Quote

She has the blood of a wolf, said Joffrey.And you have the wits of a goose, said Tyrion.You can’t talk to me that way. The king can do as he likes.Aerys Targaryen did as he liked. Has you mother ever told you what happened to him?Ser Boros Blount harrumphed. No man threatens His Grace in the presence of the Kingsguard.Tyrion Lannister raised an eyebrow. I am not threating the king, ser, I am educating my nephew. Bronn, Timett, the next time Ser Boros opens his mouth, kill him. The dwarf smiled. Now that was a threat, ser. See the difference?
