Argyle Wallis: Did the priest give a poetic benediction? "The Lord bless
thee and keep thee..."
Young William: It was in Latin.
Argyle Wallis: You don't speak Latin? Eh, then that is something we shall have
to remedy.
Longshanks: Archers.
English Commander: Beg your pardon sire, but won't we hit our own troops ?
Longshanks: Yes, but we'll hit there's as well. We have reserves...attack !
Executioner: The prisoner wishes to say a word.
William Wallace: FREEEEE-DOMMMMMM!
Narrator: I will tell you of William Wallace. Historians will call me a liar,
but history is written by those who've hanged heroes.
Hamish: What in the hell are the Irish doing fighting with the English?
Stephen: I wouldn't worry about them. Like I said, it's my island.
William Wallace: Your island?
Stephen: MY ISLAND! Yup!
Stephen: Just when we thought all hope was lost, our noble saviors have arrived.
Hamish: Where are you going?
William Wallace: I'm going to pick a fight.
Hamish: Well, we didn't get dressed up for nothing.
Princess Isabelle: I've come to beg for the life of William Wallace.
Prince Edward: [scoffs] You're quite taken with him, aren't you?
[After killing a would-be assassin.]
Stephen: I didn't like him anyway. He wasn't right in the head.
Campbell: [after his wound is cauterized] That'll wake you up in the mornin'.
Hamish: Some men are longer than others.
Campbell: Your mother's been telling stories about me again, ah?
English Commander: I hope you washed your ass this morning, it's about to be
kissed by a king.
William Wallace: ...chaque jour j'ai pensé à toi.
Malcolm Wallace: It's our wits that make us men.
William Wallace: The answer is yes. Fight for me, you get to kill the English.
Stephen: Excellent!
William Wallace: Sons of Scotland, I am William Wallace.
Young soldier: William Wallace is 7 feet tall.
William Wallace: 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. 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?
William Wallace: Go back to England and tell them there that Scotland's
daughters and sons are yours no more. Tell them Scotland is free.
[To Longshanks]
Princess Isabelle: You see? Death comes to us all. But before it comes to you,
know this: your blood dies with you. A child who is not of your line grows in my
belly. Your son will not sit long on the throne. I swear it.
Longshanks: The trouble with Scotland is that it's full of Scots.
Stephen: [To William Wallace] The Almighty tells me he can get me out of this
mess, but he's pretty sure you're fucked.
William Wallace: Every man dies, not every man really lives.
[Lord Bottoms has previously taken Morrison's wife as his own.]
Morrison: Do you remember me?
Lord Bottoms: I never did her any harm. It was my right.
Morrison: Your right? Well, I'm here to claim the right of a husband.
[Kills Lord Bottoms]
Campbell: I'm dying. Let me be.
Hamish: No. You're going to live.
Campbell: I've lived long enough to live free. And proud to see you become the
man that you are. I'm a happy man.
Lord Bottoms: As lord of these lands I shall bless this marriage by taking the
bride into my bed on the first night of her union.
Morrison: By God, you will not!
William Wallace: We all end up dead, the question is how and why.
Stephen: I'm the most wanted man on my island! But I'm not on my island.
[Laughs]
Hamish: You're island? You mean Ireland.
Stephen: Yeah. It's MINE.
William Wallace: You dropped your rock.
Argyle Wallis: We'll stay here tonight, leave in the mornin'.
Young William: But I don't want to leave.
Argyle Wallis: You did not want your father to die either, but it happened.
Argyle Wallis: They are saying goodbye in their own way. Playing outlawed tunes
on outlawed pipes.
Robert's Father: At last, you know what it means to hate. Now you're ready to be
a king.
Robert the Bruce: My hate will die with you.
Princess Isabelle: The king desires peace.
William Wallace: Longshanks desires peace?
Princess Isabelle: He declares it to me, I swear it. He proposes that you
withdraw your attack. In return he grants you title, estates, and this chest of
gold which I am to pay to you personally.
William Wallace: A lordship and titles. Gold. That I should become Judas?
Princess Isabelle: Peace is made in such ways.
William Wallace: Slaves are made in such ways. The last time Longshanks spoke of
peace I was a boy. And many Scottish nobles, who would not be slaves, were lured
by him under a flag of truce to a barn, where he had them hanged. I was very
young, but I remember Longshank's notion of peace.
Robert the Bruce: Now, I know you've sacrificed much. But fighting these odds
looks like rage, not courage.
William Wallace: It's well beyond rage. Help me. For Christ's sake, help
yourselves! If we join, we can win. If we win, well then we'll have what none of
us has ever had before: a country of our own.
Robert's Father: Longshanks acquired Wallace. So did our nobles. That was the
price of your crown.
Robert the Bruce: DIE!!! I want you to die!
Longshanks: Bring me Wallace. Alive if possible, dead...just as good.
