Sir William Wallace quotes from Braveheart (1995)

I'm so afraid. Give me the strength to die well.

In the year of our Lord 1314, patriots of Scotland, starving and outnumbered, charged the fields of Bannockburn. They fought like warrior poets. They fought like Scotsmen. And won their freedom.

Where do you think you're going?

I'm going with you.

Oh, you're going with, hey? And what are you going to do?

I'm gonna help.

Hey, and a good help you'd be, too. But I need you to stay here and look after the place for me while I'm away.

I can fight!

I know you can fight, but it's our wits that make us men. I'll see you tomorrow.

Argyle

We'll stay here tonight. Tomorrow you'll come home with me.

I don't want to leave.

Argyle

You didn't want your father to die either, did ya? But it happened. Did the priest give a poetic benediction? "The Lord bless thee and keep thee..."

It was in Latin.

Argyle

You don't speak Latin? Eh, then that is something we shall have to remedy, isn't it?

Where are you going?

I'm going to pick a fight.

Well, looks like we didn't get dressed up for nothing.

Why do you help me?

Princess Isabelle

Because of the way you are looking at me now.

You know, eventually Longshanks will send his whole Northern Army against us.

Heavy cavalry, armored horse; shake the very ground.

They'll ride right over us.

Uncle Argyle used to talk about it; how no army had ever stood up to a charge of heavy horse.

So what'll we do?

Run, hide, the highland way.

We'll make spears. Hundreds of them! Long spears, twice as long as a man.

That long?

Aye.

Some men are longer than others.

Your mother been telling you stories about me again, eh?
