You are your mother's trueborn son of Lannister.""Am I?" the dwarf replied, sardonic. "Do tell my lord father. My mother died birthing me, and he's never been sure."" I don't even know who my mother was, " Jon said. "Some woman, no doubt. Most of them are." He favored Jon with a rueful grin. "Remember this, boy. All dwarfs may be bastards, yet not all bastards need be dwarfs." And with that he turned and sauntered back into the feast, whistling a tune. When he opened the door, the light from within threw his shadow clear across the yard, and for just a moment Tyrion Lannister stood tall as a king. George R.r. Martin
About This Quote

It’s true, we all come from somewhere and we should be grateful for that. We have been given the opportunity to live life on this Earth. When you have been given a chance to live life then you have been given a chance to do something great with your life. In the story, Jon is trying to find out who his mother was because he was born out of wedlock.

His mother died during the birthing process so he has no idea who his mother was. He asked his father, but he didn't know either. This shows us that even though we come from different people, we all have a connection to each other and even if it is a small connection, it will always be there.
