80+ Best 'House of the Dragon' Quotes from the Series | Page 4 of 7

Criston Cole: The Princess Rhaenyra is brazen and relentless. A spider who stings and sucks her prey dry. A spoiled c*nt. That was beneath me, Your Grace. I apologize.

Alicent Hightower: I have to believe, that in the end, honor and decency will prevail. We need to hew to that and to each other.

(After Rhaenyra has given a birth...)

Laenor Velaryon: Was it terribly painful? I took a lance through the shoulder once.

Rhaenyra Targaryen: My deepest sympathies.

Laenor Velaryon: I am glad I am not a woman.

Laena Velaryon: I was sorry to hear about your lady wife.

Daemon Targaryen: Don't be, I wasn't. My lady was never very kind to me.

Rhaenyra Targaryen: I was never much of a dancer.

Laenor Velaryon: It's not much different to combat.

Rhaenyra Targaryen: Hm, I shall hope for a different outcome.

Jason Lannister (about Alicent): Where is the Queen? I had hoped to pay my respects.

Viserys Targaryen: I understand the Queen is still readying herself for the celebrations.

Jason Lannister: This is why men wage war... because women would never be ready for the battle in time.

Viserys Targaryen: Will I be remembered as a good king, Lyonel?

Lyonel Strong: Your Grace?

Viserys Targaryen: What will they say of me when the histories are written? I have neither fought nor conquered, nor suffered any great defeat.

Lyonel Strong: Some might call that good fortune.

Viserys Targaryen: It hardly makes a good song, does it? To be sung at feasts in a hundred years... five hundred.

Lyonel Strong: You have carried King Jaehaerys's legacy. And kept the realm strong. Is it not better to live in peace than to have songs sung after you are dead?

Criston Cole: I'm asking you to come with me away from all of this. From the burdens and indignities of your inheritance. Let us leave it all behind and see the world together... where we'll be nameless, and free... free to go where we like, to love as we like. In Essos... you could marry me. A marriage for love, not for the crown.

Rhaenyra Targaryen: I am the crown, Ser Criston. Or I will be. I may chafe at my duties, but do you think I would choose infamy in exchange for a bushel of oranges or a ship to Asshai?

Rhaenyra Targaryen: I know this union is not what you would choose.

Laenor Velaryon: I hold nothing against you, cousin.

Rhaenyra Targaryen: No, I... rather... Dare I say it is a matter of taste? I prefer roast duck to goose. I cannot say why.

Laenor Velaryon: It's, it's not for a lack of trying. There are those who like goose very well.

Rhaenyra Targaryen: I find it a bit greasy for my taste. I know that whatever agreement being struck up there will not change your appetites, nor will it change mine.

Laenor Velaryon: And what do you propose?

Rhaenyra Targaryen: That we perform our duty to our fathers and to the realm and when it's done... each of us dines as we see fit.

Viserys Targaryen (to Corlys): Upon their birth, Ser Laenor and Rhaenyra's children shall take their father's name, Velaryon... in keeping with our traditions. However, at such time when their firstborn ascends the Iron Throne, he or she will do so bearing the name Targaryen. Dragons will rule the Seven Kingdoms for the next hundred years, just as they did the last.

Larys Strong (to Alicent): When one is never invited to speak, one learns instead to, um... observe.

Otto Hightower (to Alicent): The King will die. It may be months or years, but he'll not live to be an old man. And if Rhaenyra succeeds him, war will follow, do you understand? The realm will not accept her. And to secure her claim, she'll have to put your children to the sword. She'll have no choice. You know it. You're no fool, and yet you choose not to see it. The time is coming, Alicent. Either you prepare Aegon to rule, or you cleave to Rhaenyra and pray for her mercy.

Rhea Royce (to Daemon): Husband. What brings you to the Vale? Or have you at last come to consummate our marriage? The Vale's sheep might be willing, even if I'm not. Our sheep are prettier, after all.

Viserys Targaryen: You will wed Ser Laenor Velaryon, and you will do so without protest.

Rhaenyra Targaryen: The son of the Sea Snake. So I can be a remedy for your political headaches.

Viserys Targaryen: You are my political headache!

Rhaenyra Targaryen: Were I born a man, I could bed whomever I wanted. I could father a dozen b*stards, and no one in your court would blink an eye.

Viserys Targaryen: Before Aegon's death, the last of the Valyrian pyromancers hid his song in the steel.

Rhaenyra Targaryen (reads from the blade): "From my blood come the Prince That Was Promised and his will be the Song of Ice and Fire".
