Game of Thrones’ Emilia Clarke (Daenerys) turns 36 today, here are some of her best quotes from the show

23rd October is an important day for Game of Thrones fans worldwide. It is the birthday of one of the show’s biggest stars, actress Emilia Clarke. The beloved Khaleesi, Queen of the Dragons turned 36 today. Clarke is one of the bravest and most dedicated actresses in the filmmaking industry. She went through suffering two life-threatening brain aneurysms while she was filming for Game of Thrones, but she kept going on. The intense heat didn’t stop her, and the long hours of work didn’t deter her. After going through those harrowing experiences, she is grateful to be alive, and lives her life to the fullest.

Let’s take a moment to look back at Emilia Clarke’s best moments and her best quotes as Daenerys Targaryen from the show. See if you can identify the iconic scenes from these quotes, if you do, let us know in the comments below!

1. “I am a Khaleesi of the Dothraki. I am the wife of the great Khal and I carry his son inside me. The next time you raise a hand to me, will be the last time you have hands.”
2. “I am not your little princess. I am Daenerys Storm born of the blood of old Valyria and I will take what is mine, with fire and blood I will take it.”
3. “I am Daenerys Storm born, of House Targaryen, of the blood of Old Valyria – I am the Dragon’s Daughter. And I swear to you, that those who would harm you will die screaming.”
4. “Do you understand? I’m no ordinary woman. My dreams come true.”
5. “You are small men. None of you are fit to lead the Dothraki. But I am, so I will.”
6. “Our fathers were evil men. They left the world worse than they found it. We are not going to do that. We are going to leave it better than we found it.”
7. “I will not let those I have freed slide back to chains. I will sail for Westeros… I will do what queens do. I will rule.”
8. “So many men have tried to kill me, I don’t remember all their names. I have been sold like a broodmare…Do you know what kept me standing through all those years in exile? Faith. Not in any gods, not in myths and legends. In myself. In Daenerys Targaryen.”
9. “He was no dragon. Fire cannot kill a dragon.”
10. “I’m not going to stop the wheel. I’m going to break the wheel.”
