Quotes from the Movie Braveheart

Oh, it's perfect Scottish weather, madam. The rain is fallin' straight down, well slightly to the side like.

William Wallace

Go back to England and tell them there that Scotland's daughters and sons are yours no more! Tell them Scotland is free!

William Wallace

I'm so afraid. Lord, give me the strength to die well.

William Wallace

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.

William Wallace

You have come to fight as free men, and free men you are. What will you do with that freedom? Will you fight? Aye, fight and you may die, run and you'll live. At least a while. And dying in your beds many years from now, would you be willing to trade all the days from this day to that for one chance, just one chance to come back here and tell our enemies that they may take our lives, but they'll never take our freedom!

William Wallace

Sure didn't the Almighty send me to watch your back? I didn't like him anyway. He wasn't right in the head.

Stephen

In order to find his equal, an Irishman is forced to talk to God. Yes, Father? The Almighty says 'Don't change the subject, just answer the f***ing question.'

Stephen

The Almighty tells me he can get me out of this mess, but he's pretty sure you're f***ed.

Stephen

Scotland, my land. The French will grovel to anyone with strength, but how will they believe our strength when we can not rule the whole of our own island?

King Edward Longshanks

In the morning, I depart for France to press our rights there, and I leave you here to quell this little rebellion, understood? Is it? One day you will be a king. At least try to act like one.

King Edward Longshanks

I heard word in France where I was fighting to expand your future kingdom. The word, my son, is that our entire Northern Army is annihilated.

King Edward Longshanks

Who is this person that speaks to me as though I needed his advice?

King Edward Longshanks

I shall offer a truce and buy him off. But who will go to him? Not I. If I fell under the sword of that murderer, that might be my head in a basket. And not my gentle son. The mere sight of him would only encourage the enemy to take over the whole country. So whom do I send? Whom do I send?

King Edward Longshanks

Not the archers. My scouts tell me their archers are miles away and no threat to us. Arrows cost money. Use up the Irish. Their dead cost nothing.
