- Waylin: Hercules-- you know? The more I thought about it-- the more I think you're making a big mistake. You need me as a slave-- a good slave-- a slave who knows how to be obedient-- even if it means being a pain in the ass.
- Deianeira: The people know that you're behind us. It means everything to them, Hercules. Thank you.
- Hercules: They still have to fight. They just-- don't get the idea of combat. You know, they think too much. They've memorized-- how to shoot an arrow. But if you memorized how to walk, you'd never get across a room.
- Deianeira: Why don't you ever look at me?
- Hercules: Huh?
- Deianeira: Soon I may be dead and-- you never look at me. I've changed. Can you see it?
- Hercules: Deianeira, beauty's-- not important. I mean-- it's your spirit everybody likes.
- Deianeira: You don't think I'm beautiful?
- Hercules: Well, sure, but that's not what I mean.
- Deianeira: Would you ever want-- to kiss me?
- Hercules: I don't think so.
- Deianeira: How about now?
- Hercules: I don't think so.
- Deianeira: Now?
- Hercules: No. Deianeira, wait! I think-- you're a born leader. I mean, you're doing a great job.
- Deianeira: Don't make it worse, Hercules.
- Queen Omphale: These are my late husband's navigational instruments. With them, he traversed the world. They can guide you to where you want to go. Take what you want of them. They mean nothing to me.
- Deianeira: Great. We come all this way, and now your one, true compass is pointing to nowhere. I suppose it's broken now.
