Quotes

Victarion: You have sons.

Euron: Baseborn mongrels, born of whores and weepers.
Victarion: They are of your body.

Euron: So are the contents of my chamber pot. None is fit to sit the Seastone Chair, much less the Iron Throne. No, to make an heir that's worthy of him, I need a different woman. When the kraken weds the dragon, brother, let all the world beware.[5]
