Soldier

This Zorro comes upon you like a graveyard ghost and like a ghost he disappears.

Title Card

Oppression - by its very nature - creates the power that crushes it. A champion arises - a champion of the oppressed - whether it be a Cromwell or someone unrecorded, he will be there. He is born.

Title Card

Out of the mystery of the unknown - appeared a masked rider who rode up and down the great highway..

I - give you - freely - the kiss he would have taken. [kisses Zorro] I fear for your safety, señor.

Fear not - their wits are as slow as their blades. The weapons you use pierce deep, señorita.

We seek the vulture, Zorro!

Don Diego Vega

You're too fat, Gonzales. Poison the mountain tops and set your traps in the clouds - perhaps you'll have better luck.

I have a servant - a wonder at the guitar. Tonight I shall order him to come out and play beneath your window.

I have a maid - passionately fond of music!

Once, in a garden I saw a beautiful rose - I sought to pluck it - quickly. It stung me - Then - - slowly - - cautiously - I reached for it - - and the rose was mine!

Indeed! Then I'm but another rose?

An, no señorita. You are too wonderful! I dare not even hope.

[passionately wooing Lolita]

If this could be - The high Sierras I would level to your feet - The wild waves on Capistrano's shore should pay you homage - I'd make the desert a million roses yield - - to die in shame before your beauty- If this could be!

I give you a safe rule, good landlady. Never do anything on an empty stomach - but eat!

Justice for all! Punishment for the oppressors of the helpless - from the governor down.

No force that tyranny could bring would dare oppose us - once united. Our country's out of joint. It is for us caballeros, and us alone, to set it right!
