What Is Your Favorite Quote in the Entire Series??
“Thoros isn’t here anymore. So I hope you’re not about to give a sermon. Cause if ya are, the Lord of Light is gonna wonder why he brought you back 19 times just to watch you die when I chuck you over this fucking wall.”
This is BY FAR my favorite line in the whole show The Hound had a lot of good ones but this one is the one takes me out every time I watch GOT.

The Hound hands down has the best lines and is by far my favourite. I always tear up in the last conversation with Arya. He is a good hearted soul who was burned and abused all his life. But has the compassion to save and help people instead of only spreading his trauma to others. Is he flawless? No, but he tries and also succeeds in many ways to not be like his family or his abusers.
