Richard Harris Quotes:
King Arthur:
I love them and they answer me with pain and torment. Be it sin or not sin, they betray me in their hearts and that's far sin enough. I can feel it in their eyes, I can feel it when they speak, and they must pay for it and be punished. I shall not be wounded and not return it in kind! I'm through with feeble hoping! I demand a man's vengeance!
[Calming down]
King Arthur: Proposition: I'm a king, not a man. And a very civilized king. Could it possibly be civilized to destroy the thing I love? Did they ask for this calamity? Can passion be selected?
Maj. Amos Dundee: Why don't you get two of your best men to help Sergeant Gomez take those children back to Fort Benlin?
Capt. Benjamin Tyreen: [chuckles slightly] We'll still outnumber you, Amos!
Maj. Amos Dundee: You surely will, Ben. Now go do as you're told.
Capt. Benjamin Tyreen: Yes, sir.
[brief pause]
Capt. Benjamin Tyreen: But only until the Apache is taken or destroyed.
King Arthur: [to Mordred] Far more seasoned rascals than you have polished their souls, I advise you, get out the wax. Better to be rubbed clean than rubbed out.
