As Game of Thrones Season Five comes to a close on Monday Amazon has found the 10 most highlighted passages from the book series by G R R Martin's A Song of Ice and Fire.
Tyrion Lannister comes out on top
It's no surprise that the Lannisters feature predominantly in the following extracts- in-keeping with the TV show- they do tend to have the best one liners.
" Death is so terribly final, while life is full of possibilities." Tyrion Lannister
" A ruler who hides behind paid executioners soon forgets what death is." Ned Stark
" A mind needs books as a sword needs a whetstone, if it is to keep its edge." Tyrion Lannister
" When you play the game of thrones, you win or you die. There is no middle ground." Cersei Lannister
"They say night's beauties fade at dawn, and the children of wine are oft disowned in the morning light." Barristan Selmy
" We are only human, and the gods have fashioned us for love. That is our great glory, and our great tragedy." Jon Snow
"If you would take a man's life, you owe it to him to look into his eyes and hear his final words. And if you cannot bear to do that, then perhaps the man does not deserve to die." Ned Stark
" Never forget what you are, for surely the world will not. Make it your strength. Then it can never be your weakness. Armor yourself in it, and it will never be used to hurt you." Tyrion Lannister
" Let them see that their words can cut you, and you'll never be free of the mockery. If they want to give you a name, take it, make it your own. Then they can't hurt you with it anymore." Tyrion Lannister
" The common people pray for rain, healthy children, and a summer that never ends," Ser Jorah told her. "It is no matter to them if the high lords play their game of thrones, so long as they are left in peace." He gave a shrug. "They never are." Jorah Mormont and Daenerys Tagaryen
