Sir Hudson Lowe
- Napoleon Bonaparte: I'd like a bible.
- Sir Hudson Lowe: It never occurred to me that you were religious.
- Napoleon Bonaparte: I only read the love poetry. And the battle scenes. You can learn a lot from those Old Testament boys.
- Sir Hudson Lowe: Could I say although this is the first time I've had the honor of meeting you in person, I've long regarded you with the utmost admiration; well aware that you make a point of keeping out of the public eye, and that many of your countrymen are unaware of the historic services that you have rendered to...

- [first lines]
- Count Bertrand: Allow me to introduce myself.
- Sir Hudson Lowe: That's quite unnecessary. I know who you are.
- Sir Hudson Lowe: You are free to move anywhere on the island, provided you are accompanied by an English officer.
- Napoleon Bonaparte: I am not your prisoner.
- Sir Hudson Lowe: You held a great deal of power for a very long time. I expect it's not easy to accept someone else in command. Nevertheless, that is the fact of the matter.
