The role Tyrion Lannister was excellently played by Peter Dinklage. This was a phenomenal character on HBO’s Game of Thrones, and he sure did know a thing or two about drinking.
His quotes from the show have both quality and quantity. Some of his very best quotes are related to his drinking, and we can take a look at ten of the best here.
1. Tyrion says that he will try to know as many people as he can because you will never know which one you’ll need.”

2. Another quote is that it Still Makes Him More Clever Than You.
Tyrion and Cersei Lannister are having a pretty horrible relationship from the start of Tyrion’s life, to the end of hers.
3. Tyrion says, “everything is better with some wine in the belly.”
Tyrion has got a strong adoration for wine. This is shown from the first episode onwards, and he gets regularly referred to as a drunk, and his main concern is wine and brothels.

This is another drinking quote by Tyrion in conversation with Jon Snow.

7. Tyrion makes it clear that it is not easy being drunk all the time, and everyone would do it If it were easy.”
One of the most famous quotes by Tyrion unsurprisingly comes in a drunken environment, as he pours wine, and talks to Podric in season three.
