Sir Walter Raleigh
Why be afraid of tomorrow when today is all we have?
A line from Sir Walter Raleigh
We mortals have many weaknesses; we feel too much, hurt too much or too soon we die, but we do have the chance of love.

[Walter Raleigh has discovered a colony]
We have named it Virginia, after our Virgin Queen.
Queen Elizabeth I
"Virginia"? And when I am married, will you rename it to "Conjugia"?
Queen Elizabeth I
Are you here to tell me I must murder a Queen?
Sir Walter Raleigh
I would never presume to tell my Queen what to do. Only you know where your duty lies.
Queen Elizabeth I
Was it my father's duty to murder my mother? She was a Queen, for a time. Oh, I would be loath to die so bloody a death.
Sir Walter Raleigh
Since when were you so afraid?
Queen Elizabeth I
I'm always afraid.
Sir Walter Raleigh
Kill a Queen and all Queens are mortal. We mortals have many weaknesses: we feel too much, hurt too much. All too soon we die, but we do have the chance of love.
Queen Elizabeth I
Do we? I have given England my life. Must she also have my soul?
