Thomas Boleyn
- Thomas Boleyn: Mary, I have always loved you. All those things are true. The King was generous to me because you were - generous to him. But you're a fool; because, you gave him everything and asked for nothing. What His Majesty is denied, he goes mad to obtain. What he gets freely, he despises. You have lost him. I can't help you. Go now and cause no trouble.
- Mary Boleyn: He's finished with me. Has he? Tell me the truth!
- Thomas Boleyn: One never gets used to these things. There is always a hell to go through, when a girl gives herself so completely.
- Mary Boleyn: You know why I gave myself to the King. Since I opened my bedroom door to the King, you've lived well by it.
- King Henry VIII: When may I smell this pretty posy of yours?
- Thomas Boleyn: If you mean Anne, Sir, she is still at her mirror. A new dress, nervous fingers. If you could give her half an hour, perhaps?
- King Henry VIII: We have this whole day, Thomas.
- King Henry VIII: Your two daughters, Thomas, are they friends?
- Thomas Boleyn: Yes.
- King Henry VIII: And do they exchange confidences, do you think? Do they whisper together at night secrets about me, perhaps?
- Thomas Boleyn: Who knows, Your Grace? The one you have had, the other you desire.
