    Book spoiler ahead
    In the books when Catelyn Starks body is thrown into the river at the Twins after the Red Wedding, she washes up as a zombie and heads around hanging men who betrayed her and Robb. That's the gist, I forget specifics, but her not appearing in the show at all was a bit crap, she was a cool character to have in the background and the Hound pissing in a stream seems to be a **** you to Lady Stoneheart fans.
    In the books Arya is a warg and sees things through her direwolf Nymeria. Nymeria pulls Catelyn from the river after three days. The Brotherhood without Banners find her but because she has been dead so long it is a lot harder to resurrect her and Dondarrion sacrifices himself so she can return. The hound pissing in the lake is the fans take on the show writers pissing on the speculation of her returning.

    Personally I never liked the LS storyline but I would've liked to have seen the relevance (if any) of Arya being a warg.

    I haven't laughed harder since Tyrion described Shagga, son of Dolf, as looking like "Casterly Rock with hair". He got a bit bored with Shagga's regular threats to chop off his manhood and feed it to the goats ... :pac:

    +1 for Tyrion: "Those are brave men knocking at our door. Let's go kill them!"

    edit: I just remembered a great one from Littlefinger: "Chaos isn’t a pit. Chaos is a ladder. Many who try to climb it fail and never get to try again. The fall breaks them. And some are given a chance to climb, they cling to the realm or the gods or love. Only the ladder is real. The climb is all there is."

    Death has this much to be said for it:
    You don’t have to get out of bed for it.
    Wherever you happen to be
    They bring it to you—free.

    I know it's not a one liner and it's not a show line but a book one, from a relatively minor character
    (Hugo Wull)
    . Everyone remembers Lord Manderly's speech but this doesn't get as much love even though it's just as good. Will put it in spoilers...
    Corliss: Do you want to die, Wull?

    Hugo: I want to live forever in a land where summer lasts a thousand years. I want a castle in the clouds where I can look down over the world. I want to be six-and-twenty again. When I was six-and-twenty I could fight all day and fúck all night.

    What men want does not matter. Winter is almost upon us, boy. And winter is death. I would sooner my men die fighting for the Ned's little girl than alone and hungry in the snow, weeping tears that freeze upon their cheeks. No one sings songs of men who die like that. As for me, I am old. This will be my last winter.

    Let me bathe in Bolton blood before I die. I want to feel it spatter across my face when my axe bites deep into a Bolton skull. I want to lick it off my lips and die with the taste of it on my tongue.

    Such a shame that those last three sentences didn't make it into the show somehow.

    I thought the better line in that exchange was "Not now, we'll talk later".

    Are they book quotes because I cannot recall meeting a character called Genna Lannister?

    I think they're all book quotes. Genna hasn't made an appearance on TV.

    Isn't this TV show only quotes?

    Some good advice Arya got early on, after Jon made her a sword she called Needle:
    “First lesson,” Jon said. “Stick them with the pointy end.”
    Then she had to explain Needle to Ned:
    “Arya, what did you think to do with this… Needle? Who did you hope to skewer? Your sister? Septa Mordane? Do you know the first thing about sword fighting?”
    All she could think of was the lesson Jon had given her. “Stick them with the pointy end,” she blurted out.
    Her father snorted back laughter. “That is the essence of it, I suppose.”
    Ah, the innocence of youth ... :eek:
