Tyrion Lannister is one of the lucky few who managed to survive until the very last episode of 'Game of Thrones'. Over the course of eight seasons, he delivered countless brilliant lines that can be applied to everyday life.
In case you need a reminder, Tyrion Lannister is the son of Tywin and the brother of Cersei and Jaime. Born a dwarf, he was despised by his father. But that didn’t stop Tyrion from becoming a strong and formidable individual.
Tyrion is one of the most intriguing characters in both the series and the books. He’s intelligent, cunning, calculated, and incredibly witty. He compensates for his height and perceived flaws with golden coins and sharp humor.
The youngest Lannister often guided other characters with his wise advice. For instance, recall how he reasoned with Jon Snow, who used to bristle at every joke about bastards.
'All dwarfs are bastards in their fathers' eyes,' Tyrion declared, advising Jon to wear his weakness as armor.
So, we’ve gathered some of the most iconic quotes from the dwarf just for you!
