Braveheart Quotes
Wow looks like you've got quite the War Movie Quotes site here.
for me. Braveheart is my all time favorite movie. I have posters
and even printed off the Movie Script. here are a few of my favorite
quotes and sayings:
William (narrating):
"in the year of our Lord 1314, patriots of Scotland,
starving and outnumbered, charged the fields at
Bannockburn. They fought like warrior poets. They
Fought like Scotsmen. And won their freedom."
Robert the Bruce (narrator):
"I shall tell you of William Wallace. Historians
from england will say I am a liar, but history
is written by those who have hanged heroes.
The king of scotland had died without a son,
and the King of England, a cruel pagon know
as Edward the Longshanks, claimed the
throne of Scotland for himself. Scotland's
nobles fought him, and fought each other
over the crown. So longshanks invited them
to talks of truce, no weapons, one page only
Among the farmers of that shire was Malcom
Wallace, a commoner with his own Lands.
He had who sons: John and William."
Willaim: I don't want to leave.
Argyle: you didnt want your father to die either, did ya? but it happened."
Dead Malcom: Your heart is free. Have the courage to follow her.
Argyle: First, Learn to use this (taps William's forehead), then i'll teach
you to use this (Argyle lifts the sword).
William: You Dropped your Rock.
Hamish: Test of Manhood.
William: You win
Hamish: Call it a test of soldiery, then. English won't let us train with
weapons, so we train with stones.
William: Well, a test of soldier is not in the arm, it's here (points to head)
Hamish: No, it's here (points to arm and punches william)
Willaim: Hamish?
Hamish: Mm-hmm (winks a william)
Hamish: I could crush you like a worm.
William: Oui. Parce que chaque jour j'ai pense a toi. (yes because ever
single day I thought about you.)
Murron: do that standing on your head and i'll be impressed.
William: My kilt will fly up but i'll try.
Murron: You certainly didnt learn any manners on your travels.
Lord Bottoms: I have dispatched 100 soldiers to Lanark. They will be
returning now.
William: Were they dressed like this? Actualy it was more like 50.
William: we'll make spears Hundreds of them. Long spears. Twice as long
as a man.
Hamish: That long?
William: Aye.
Hamish: Some men are longer than others.
Cambell: Your mother been telling stories about me again. Ah?
(they laugh)
Stephen: Alright Father, I'll ask him. If I risk my neck for you, Will I get
a chance to kill Englishmen?
Hamish: is your father a ghost or do you converse with the Almighty?
Stephen: In order to find his equal, an Irishman is forced to talk to God.
Yes Father. The Almighty says don't change the subject, just
answer the ****ing question.
Stephen: Execellent. Stephen is my name. I'm the most wanted man on
my Island, except im not on my Island, of course. More's the
pity.
Hamish: Your Island? uou mean Ireland.
Stephen: Yeah. It's mine (grinning broadly)
Hamish: You're a madman.
Stephen: i'v come to the right place, then.
Stephen: didnt the Almighty send me to watch your back? I didnt like him
anyway. He wasn't Right.. in the head.
Hamish: Where are you going?
William: i'm going to pick a fight.
William: Sons of Scotland, I am William Wallace.
Young soldier: William Wallace is seven feet tall.
William: Yes, I've heard. He kills men by the hundreds, and if he were
here he'd consume the English with fireballs from his eyes and
bolts of lightning from his arse.
Crowed: (laugh)
William: I am william wallace, and I see a whole army of my countrymen
here in defiance of tyranny. You have come to fight as free men
,and free men you are. What will you do with that freedom? Will
you fight?
Soldier: Fight against that? No, we will run and we will live.
William: Aye, fight and you may die, run and you'll live. at least a while.
and dying in your beds many years from now, would you be
willing to trade all the days from this day to that for one chance,
just one chance to come back here and tell our enemies that they
may take our lives, but they'll naever take our Freedom?!
Alba gu brath! (Scotland Forever!)
Craig: Gentelmen! Please, Gentelmen! Wait! Sir William, where are you
going?
William: We have beaten the English, but they'll come back because you
wont stand together.
Craig: Well what will you do?
William: We'll invade England and defeat the English on their own ground.
Craig: (laughs) Invade? That's Impossible.
William: Why? Why is that impossible? You're so concerned with
squabbling fro the scraps from Longshank's table that you've
missed your God-given right to something better. There's a
difference between us. You think the people of this country exist
to provide you with position. I think your position exists to
provide those people with freedom. And I go to make sure they
have it.
William: Men dont follow titles, they follow courage. Now our people know
you. Noble, and common, they respect you. And if you would
just lead them to freedom, they'd follow you. And so would I.
Hamish: What the hell are the Irish doing fighting with the English?
Stephen: I wouldn't worry about them. Didn't I tell you before, It's
my Island.
William: Your Island?
Stephen: (proudly smiling) My Island! Yup!
Longshanks: The problem with Scotland is it's full of Scotts.
Robert the Bruce: You Have bled with Wallace, now Bleed with me.
Craig: Ah!
(Hamish drops his axe, and pulls out wallace's sword. stepping forward, he screams and throws william's sword out into the field. it stabs into the earth, standing like a cross. Robert the Bruce draws his sword.)
Crowd: WALLACE, WALLACE, WALLACE, WALLACE!
