Jaime Lannister

— You understand. On some level you understand that you're an evil man.
— I'll leave the judgments to the gods.
— Well, that is convenient for you.

Justice, Jurisdiction

— Always wanted a Dornish stallion. Beasts can run a day and night without tiring. We'll ride to the Water Gardens with a nice breeze in our faces.
— First we need to bury these bodies.
— Birds have to eat, too.
— Corpses raise questions. Questions raise armies. We're not here to start a war.

— You're not like your sister. You're not. You're better than she is. You're a good man and you can't save her. You don't need to die with her. Stay here. Stay with me. Please. Stay.
— You think I'm a good man? I pushed a boy out a tower window, crippled him for life for Cersei. I strangled my cousin with my own hands just to get back to Cersei. I would have murdered every man, woman and child in Riverrun for Cersei. She's hateful. And so am I.

— Why didn't you tell them?
— You won't be able to help us in this fight if I let them murder you first.
— What about afterwards?
— How do you know there is an afterwards?

Good prisoners breed good jailers, apparently.

— The war is over, ser. Why sacrifice living men to a lost cause?
— As long as I'm standing, the war is not over.

— Do you think you could beat me in a fair fight?
— I’ve never seen you fight.
— The answer is no. There are three men in the kingdoms who might have a chance against me. You’re not one of them.

— You'd think being tormented from birth would have given you some affinity for the afflicted.
— On the contrary. Laughing at another person's misery was the only thing that made me feel like everyone else.
— The joke wore thin, though.
