Arthur God uses people like you, Lancelot. Because your heart is open. You hold nothing back. You give all of yourself. Lancelot If you knew me better, you would not say such things. Arthur Oh, hey, I take the good with the bad, together. I can't love people in slices. Lancelot Do you know how to win a sword fight? John How? Lancelot Be the only one with a sword! Guinevere If there is any honor in you, promise me never to do that again. Lancelot I don't know about honor. But I promise you, I won't kiss you again till you ask me to.
