The Greatest Dialogue Ever! 👍🫢❤️

- A thought-provoking #viral video challenges the notion of power. In a riddle, three influential men face off, each commanding a Sell Sword to kill the other two. The outcome, the video suggests, depends solely on the common Sell Sword. This intriguing concept questions why kings hold all the power if it is the swordsmen who rule. Drawing inspiration from the Game of Thrones series, the video delves into the true source of power and who holds responsibility. It concludes with the idea that even the smallest individual can cast a mighty and influential shadow.
The clip features Tyrion Lannister and Lord Varys talking about the true meaning of power, creating one of the most powerful dialogues of any motion picture.
The clip used is from Game of Thrones under the Fair Usage Policy.
"power resides where men believe it resides"
So, it depends on the sellsword.
But also on the king, the priest and the richman. However makes the people believe has the most power. The sellsword merely responds to what the other three have to offer.
@@ButcherOfBeek A slightly different point of view, from the film "Lord of War"
Yuri Orlov : [sarcastically to Vitaly refering to Simeon Weisz] He was selling guns before there was gun powder
Yuri Orlov : [to Simeon Weisz] Mr. Weisz, a mutual friend, Eli Kurtsman from Brighton Beach import export said to contact you. I have business proposal that I thought we can perhaps discuss.
Simeon Weisz : I don't think you and I are in the same business, you think I just sell guns don't you? I don't, I take sides.
Yuri Orlov : But in the Iran Iraq war you sold guns to both sides.
Simeon Weisz : Did you ever consider I wanted both sides to lose? Bullets change governments far surer than votes. You're in the wrong place my young friend, there's no place for amateurs
I'm not really agree... it's the theory of shuval arary about the beliefs of the men
@@fitito500English a second language there? Theory of WHAT array?
Whenever I see clips like this from when GOT was good, I get sad & mad at the later seasons. THE SHOW WAS SO GOOD!
Yeah but you have to look back and be thankful for how great of a show it was and that we all got to witness it
Couldve been the best TV show in history. 🥲
Yeah they ruined it by hurrying.
Still the best show ever
@@geegee8625breaking bad is much better and I love thrones.
Varys and Tyrion were such a good duo.
Son was Bron, son of you never knew him
I swear!!!!!!!!!😫😫😫
That is Edward Darby👍
@@Phurngirathaana I forgot to add that they should have a road trip show with certain characters. Ned and Robert, Tyrion and Varys, Bron and Jamie, Brienne and the Hound, Tom Cruise and Brandon Stark...
the only two likable characters in my opinion 😂
Varys : "Power resides where men believe..."
US dollar : "Is someone talking about me?"
Fr. I watched a whole documentary about how US dollar came to be the most important currency. It was amazing
It's a trick. Look at elon musk . A judge just stole 55 billion from him and he's powerless, many more examples out there.
The combination of money and laws written for the people of the land. No one is above the law, when this fails, no one is safe.
The stock market says hold my beer!
LMAO. Very true
In the book, when Jon and Tyrion met for the first time, the scene ended with Tyrion cast a shadow as tall as a king.
Oh ok nerd
Nobody asked nerd 🤓
Well there’s this theory that Tyrion is a targaryan, reply to this message if u want me to explain
@@ziadgadelrab2343 sure I do man
As tall as a king
How tall is kings? Do they all have same height 💀
"When Small men begin to cast big shadows, it means that the sun is setting."
- Lin Yutang (Chinese poet and philosopher)

@@squarepant11as the sun rises, the shadow becomes increasingly smaller, thus does not “begin” to cast big shadows
Even the shadow of the tallest men on earth will 'begin to cast big shadow' as the sun sets
Not every Chinese saying makes sense. Even the rising sun can caste shadows longer for smaller objects😂😂.
@@fpk2448Actually, technically it is the other way around if we're going to argue about it. As the sun rises, it "begins" by casting big shadows which become smaller as the sun gets higher. As the sun sets, it begins by casting small shadows that get bigger. It depends on how the word begin is used - whether starting with something, or starting to change to something else. Begin by or begin to. I think I've just argued that you were right in that case :-D
The interactions between Varys and Tyrion were legendary. This friendship born from a pure instinct for each to survive is what eventually broke Tyrion. When Varys died, so did Tyrions soul and his faith in Danaerys.
Lord Varys is actually one of my favorite characters in the show
For me tooo. Tyrion and varys most fav😂
They were both so good ..... until the later series when they both became dumb-as-rocks :(

Video Poster: "Okay, patience ran out, video ended!" 😂
Good observation. It has more to do with RUclips shorts length limit of 60 seconds 😅
@@indianyugyeah, but you can at least try not to blur the screen during the dialog delivery.
Just a suggestion for future videos 🙌🏽
😂😂😂
@indianyug Actually the last word would fit without the fade to white at the end.
And there are plenty of shorts exceeding 60 seconds
@@indianyug There are some editing tricks you can do to fit a video in a short. Trim the pauses between the dialogues. For instance, "Power is a very curious thing, my Lord. **pause** Are you fond of riddles?"
Those two were the dynamic duo in GOT
They were for awhile, but that fizzled out very quickly. I lost all respect for Tyrion for the way he booted his lady and then whined about it ever after.
That's why I loved GOT so much because of the richness and quality of dialogues, story, direction, details, characters everything was beyond perfect
absolutely
You are like a girlfriend who forgot why she broke up with her deadbeat, violent, and abusive ex-boyfriend.
"But he was so nice" 😂😭😂😭
Everything changed when the fire nation attacked... I mean, when D&D ran out of books...and started writing cock jokes
Gods the writing was strong then.
That was the first thing I said from the first episode.. the writing it's incredible..
That's because they're using content from the books
said it like Big Baratheon😂
They decided to become woke near the end.
The woke cancer affected almost everything in the West since 2018.
Its Almost 1:1 from the books. I wonder why the quality of the Show went to shit after they reached the end of the books...
One of my absolute favorite scenes in the show. Mainly because it speaks truth about the world we live in now
-"now"- lol
Wait, it's just our nature?
👩🚀🔫👩🚀 Always has been.
I had forgotten how good the character of varys was...and so was the actor

Lord Varys the WISEST Most Versatile character in GOT
He now goes by guga and cooks food on YT😂
Questionable, there were a lot of wise characters in GOT, just some of them didn't have luck to survive, not to mention about forced plot casualities. Tywin Lannister- alwayse one step before his enemies, giga brain, yet had to die because of diahria and fuck wrong wh..e... That's just one example, there are plenty more.
@venomtrue Varys interests would shift ONLY for what's best for the people of Westeros, Tywin Only cared about the Lannisters
You Either Die a Hero or Live Long Enough to See Yourself Become the Villain
Pick your sacrifice.
Thats so deep man
I remember these days, when the dialogue was good and powerful. I miss them. 😢
As a 4'11 "girl next door", nothing made me feel more empowered than "a very small man can cast a very large shadow". I need a Varys in my life giving me pep talks like that 😂
Is it really that bad being short? When I lay in bed sometimes my feet go over the bottom. Too tall to lay down on most couches comfortably and I’m only 6’2. My grandma is 4’11 and she always hit me up to reach stuff in the shelves but I never saw anything wrong or bad with being short. You can fit most everywhere like a cat and be comfortable. Which I think is a huge bonus 😂
@@tj7094 Yes. Things aren't designed for you when you're short. Clothes don't fit, shelves are too high, sun visors are useless and seatbelts choke you, people assume you're a child or somehow immature, or that it's okay to invade your personal space (resting arms on you, picking you up, ruffling your hair, pushing you out of their way)... And then there's other things like medications not being the correct dose because they're designed for an average body size, or things like wrist guards and knee braces never being correct. Not to mention that as an actor, I really struggle for work because I'm too "developed" for teen roles, but a lot of people won't take me seriously as an adult either.
Yes, it's cute, and yay you can ask for help if there's someone nearby (which is really humiliating to have to do, btw), but on the whole, it makes life way more difficult.
@@LilyGrace95 Wow, that's very insightful. Things I've never thought of.. this is something that has been too easy to overlook and never give much consideration to. I appreciate you sharing all that with me. Thank you.
@@tj7094 I'll share something as a tall person... Do you know how hard it is to clean when you're tall? I have 5 kids and it's a constant struggle to keep the house in order, and there's always stuff on the floor that needs picking up, and the entire time I wish I was shorter because picking up anything is a chore when you're tall.
@@tj7094 it can be. For a guy, being shorter than 5'7" means 50% of women are instantly uninterested in even giving you a first date. Shorter than 5'5" and that becomes 80%.
And as LillyGrace points out, things aren't designed right. Clothes don't always fit your proportions (e.g. you have to roll up the cuffs of your pants), things are too high or "just off", pedals are just a bit too far when driving, and so on.
tyrion and varys gave us some of the best dialogues 😭
When the writing was at its peak
He's right.
Varys was unpredictable 😊😊
That kids is how currency was born.
Incroyable.
Ultimately a nation's currency is a stock of a nation. Its value is based on the nation's perceived stability and vitality now and in the future.
I like when Little Finger tries to intimidate Cersei, and says "money is power", then she demonstrates her control of her guards, and informs him that "power is power".
"Knowledge is Power"
This conversation reminds of a question asked in the game Planescape: Torment-“What can change the nature of a man?”
I remember when Cersie ordered her gards to sieze Little Finger, had a knife at his throat, then let him go. Then she told him "Power is power."
Whole show is about the power politics...different shades of it were shown at different times.
Question is: who has the power. Cersei? Or the guy with the dagger?
It‘s very philosophical. Who has the power? The judge sentence you to prison or the authorities with guns?
During a coup you can see who really holds power. It is not the president, who is the commander on paper, but the men with weapons who ultimately have power. They just usually subordinate themselves to law and order and serve a master.
@@Aelberethto me true power comes from Authority. In the case of a coup the ones with the guns have the "power" but no authority. What's the difference? They will soon find out the hard way how difficult it is to run a country when the other nations don't recognize their reign as legitimate. They will refuse to trade, do commerce, offer aid in a time of crises etc.
@@Aelbereth Can't agree more 👌
@@atibamaule in case of Egypt the coup leader el-Sisi is president now, accepted internationally.

Such a wonderful exchange and perfectly delivered.
Two of the brightest minds in their world have a chat together 👍
"A very small man can cast a very large shadow". Indeed!
And yet the shadow of any bigger man is bigger. Always
Of all the dialogues in GOT... Its this one in particular that stays with me to this day...
It was so impactful 💯🙌🏻
What about Varys and Littlefinger about the ladder
LoL....try chaos is a ladder
You need to read more, lots more than George Martin.
Ya it makes one man weak and it makes another man sing! 🎉🎉😂😂
So true. The same goes with governments and laws. Once the government and laws are shown to not really stand for all, then they slowly fall apart, and so does society
In mm
The normative power of the factual
Tyrion gave the correct answer, 'It depends on the sellsword.' If he was deeply religious he'd listen to the priest. If he wanted a noble title or some sort of royal favor he'd obey the king. If all he cared about was money it'd be the rich man. It just depends on that one sell sword cared about most. Varys was pretty much saying the same thing, just with a lot more words.
Lot less words and carrying way bigger meaning to it.
Well like you said, it still boils down to people putting power in other people and things that they believe have power.
So they’re both right, technically. I think Varys just spells it out a bit more to drive the point home.
The answer is whoever has good story worth to be believing will live..the sellsword will even himself get killed by gold/by loyalty/by religion if he is not believe he himself had good story to hold..sword just a tool.
Yes, and Varys just explained why it depends on sellsword, and it is not because sellsword has power of life or death.
The sellsword is you!
Then there’s season 8: haha have balls and you don’t
😂😂
Name ?
Varys: Why do you think that i avoid trouble?
Tyrion: Because..you have no c*ck?? SMH
"Ride big dragon, big dragon go woooosh lol"
i wish it turned bad at season 8....was WAAAAAY before that
Don't you just love a well delivered monologue
almost makes me want to watch again.
Varys should tell this to cersei😂😂😂
Best duo in the entire GoT.
Two amazing characters, actors and casting
Nice dialogue 😊
Those whose spiritual eyes are opened will be able to notice the deception in this dialogue.
So true worldwide. We citizens need to remember that power does not lie where we think it lies.
Power perceived is power achieved.
If they think you have it that's all you need. Until proven wrong that is. 😂
Looks like need to watch the series again for 2nd time😂❤❤
They had the best dialogues . And speak many truths that can sound true these days.
Clips from early seasons make me depressed...like seeing happy photos from a time when a toxic relationship was once happy.
In Hindi their is a saying
- jiski lathi uski bheinsh
Yahi baat to isme galat kah raha, agar bhains takatwar aur ziddi ho to admi kaboo kar sakta, agar lathi kamzoor hota to, ya admi kamzoor hota ho. Power is curious thing.
Wo keh raha hai power uske pass hoti hai jeske pass ensan manta hai power hai
What does it mean
@@yogeshnager427yeah
What does it mean jackass?
Power resides where men believe It resides. In Short, power is with the voters.
Riggers you mean.
This dialogue is why I still 😘 Game of Thrones. 👑
I'm still shocked to this day that this was ever allowed to air on television for millions to see🤯
This makes me think about the ratio of cops to civilians, something like 5000 to 1
😂
Politicians class vs Common class. 10000: 1
Power is power .. cersei lannister
So many great characters in that series.
Agreed ✅ Lord Varys is one of a kind
When they ran out of good dialogue they simply burned the bald guy.
this is what it's called a MASTERPIECE and great script
Very very well said
Thank you, George R.R. Martin for writing this brilliant dialogue in the books. An for giving us 4-5 great seasons of TV. Can't wait for TWOW and ADOS.
I think lord varys was the most intelligent person in GOT
No. That would be Shareen and her Onion Knight
The belief in something is what gives it power.
Power is people who don't want the responsibility giving it, and their lives, to someone who does.
To think this show degenerated into these two arguing over jokes about frozen balls. Tragedy.
Going only by this short clip, Varys only gives half of the answer to the riddle. The answer is: it depends on whose men are standing on the other side of that room's door! In Ned's case, the King's men stood on the other side of that door and his wildcat of a mom stood behind them! It's also why Ned chose to lose his head alone. What Varys did teach his friend is that knowledge and how to use it is truly the greatest power in the long run. Know whose on the other side of that door and place them there yourself if possible!
So it’s about who has back.
@@Ninj1201 old saying: know your friends well and your enemies better! Back then that truly would've accounted for everything from wealth to lives.
that's exactly why "knowledge is power"
Such a line between book and non-book show. The first few seasons were so good.
The best dialogue was definitely - You are my Queen!
Too bad for the Lannisters the dad never got that Tyrion was the smartest and most competent of his children.
Tywin sees Tyrion a little clearer in the books
It's too bad that he did know this, but still didn't care because his son's a dwarf.
Power is violance, wathever group can do the biggest damage, holds mkre power.
It’s good to remember. Thank you
😂😂😂
A counter to varys argument would be
"Then the power lies with the man who doesnt believe in power of others"
A simpler one is "the sellsword is only interested in gold, so the one who tosses him the heavier bag of gold gets their wish."
How do you know what a sellsword is interested in?
And your response doesn't answer the question of who lives and who dies
@@bacon8891 a sellsword by definition is only interested in gold because his occupation risks his life for the pursuit of gold.
Thats how. And this all answers the question Who lives and Who dies
He with the deepest pockets gets to live.
If the analogy was the be accurate varys should have given the task to the common man.. not a mercenary.
A common man has specific needs that can be leveraged. The king can grant him a title and land, the priest can offer him the solace of esteem and religious comfort and the rich man can offer him the gold to get what he wants through money.
But the common man has no knowledge of how to manage land, subjects or himself as befit by titles, nor does he really need the empty hollow promises of religion, nor does he really understand how to spend coin wisely..
A sellsword has already devoted his life and risks it for the pursuit of coin so the decision is a foregone conclusion.
This is why the only one Who wins in the end of the wars, is the bank of bravos.

A very "Garrak and Bashir" moment.
Brilliant writing.
This was peak television before they ran out of source material
A universal truth, no doubt.
I like the reference to Plato's _Allegory of the Cave._
If anything is free then you are the product 😊
And one unforgivable final season can cast a long shadow over how we remember one of the best shows ever! I can't watch older GOT clips or rewatch the show and appreciate the characters same way now.
A love affair can have that same effect. The end can be so lousy that it taints all the memories previously cherished, a retroactive devastation.
The greatest tragedy in television history is that a show like Game of Thrones went from this to Robin in Tights ❤😂
Such a dialogue, has a response.
The "belief" in ones power is called "legitimacy". It doesn't matter how great you believe yourself to be, if others don't believe that too.
Excellent series, so smart dialogue.
Power is Power. Belief doesn't hold power. People believe in, where actual power lies.
The writing on this show is so damn good. Excited for HotD season 2.
