Game of Thrones has given us lots of unmistakable and memorable quotes, from “Winter is coming,” to the iconic “Dracarys.”
Of course, there are some political quotes that couldn’t possibly be confused with Game of Thrones quotes, such as this one from Bernie Sanders: “We must resolve that health care is a human right, not a privilege.”
