Quotes

Crossed Swords

Edit
  • Tom Canty: If you think the food may be poisoned, why not feed it to a dog, or a plumber?
  • John Canty: How do you know he's dead?
  • Nipper: He's stiffer than the Pope's conscience!
  • The Duke of Norfolk: Are you arresting me?
  • [Hertford nods]
  • The Duke of Norfolk: Well, I've been in the court of the Tudors for 40 years. I suppose it's about my turn. May I ask on what charge?
  • Hertford: High treason, my lord.
  • The Duke of Norfolk: Oh, most flattering. A belted earl to arrest me. A guard of yeomen to convert me to the Tower, thereafter to the block... these are royal honours.
  • Hertford: My Lord?
  • The Duke of Norfolk: I thought such distinguished treatment was reserved for His Majesty's unfortunate wives.
  • The Duke of Norfolk: Do you know what death really means - it's a cure for rheumatism.
