Movie quotes

  • (..) We never talked about Tommen. There's nothing to say. Our baby boy killed himself. He betrayed me. He betrayed us both. Should we spend our days mourning the dead... Mother, father, and all our children? - Cersei... - I loved them. I did. But they're ashes now and we're still flesh and blood. (..)
