Quotes from the Movie King Arthur
He took my fatherÃs place for me. His teachings on free will and equality have been of great influence. I look forward to our reunion in Rome.

We have no secrets.
Arthur
On this day. You ask this of my men, on this day?
Arthur
They have risked their lives for fifteen years for a cause not of their own - and now, on the day they are to be liberated, you send them on a mission that is far more dangerous than any other they have undertaken.

Arthur
