Er...let us say, a farmer named...William?
Arthur
Now, Pelly, you claim you haven't. What does he do then?
Arthur
Let us say you are accused of burning down a farm.
Arthur
Wrong or right, they have the might, so wrong or right, they're always right, and that's wrong... right?
Arthur
Well, SOMEONE has to do it!
Arthur
Well, it's a sort of... um... picnic? They pick flowers and chase young...
Arthur
It's a custom we have here. This is England, you know. And this is the season for gathering flowers.
Arthur
Well... actually... there's not much going on today. The Queen and some of her court have gone a-maying.
Arthur
But for what purpose? Might isn't always right, Jenny.
Arthur
We must arrange for your knighthood.
Arthur
No, no, no! I swear it! By the Sword Excalibur! I swear I won't touch you.
Arthur
A thousand pardons, Milady. Wait! Don't run. [She stops and looks at him coweringly] Please! I won't harm you.
Arthur
But even the thought, "I'm not thinking a thought" is thinking, isn't it?
Arthur
Mordred, I must remind you that I am a civilized man. With occasional lapses.
King Arthur
Far more seasoned rascals than you have polished their souls, I advise you, get out the wax. Better to be rubbed clean than rubbed out.
King Arthur
