Quotes 

• Cersei Lannister : Margaery has her claws on Joffrey. She knows how to manipulate him.

  Tywin Lannister : Good. I wish you knew how to manipulate him. I don't distrust you because you're a woman. I distrust you because you're not as smart as you think you are. You've allowed that boy to ride roughshod over you and everyone else in this city.

  Cersei Lannister : Perhaps... you should try stopping him from doing what he likes.

  Tywin Lannister : I will.

• Lady Olenna Tyrell : [referring to Robert's death]  Such a tragedy.

  Cersei Lannister : Very predictable tragedy. Hunting and drinking do not mix.

  Lady Olenna Tyrell : I should say not. My son's a hunter. It helps him forget he's never been within a mile of a real battle.

  Cersei Lannister : I seem to recall he laid siege to Storm's End for the best part of a year.

  Lady Olenna Tyrell : All he laid siege to was the banquet table in the command tent. I told him to stay out of Robert's rebellion. He had no business fighting an actual warrior. We mothers do what we can to keep our sons from the grave. They do seem to yearn for it. We shower them with good sense, but it slides right off, like rain off a wing.

  Cersei Lannister : And yet the world belongs to them.

  Lady Olenna Tyrell : A ridiculous arrangement to my mind.

  Cersei Lannister : The gods had deemed fit to make it so.
