Francis: I wanted to one kind of King, and then I was forced to be another. Not I cannot go back.
Bash: Francis.
Francis: What is needed now is a King to be feared and not just for the prisoners, but for all of France and by God I will give them one so that this never happens again! Let them freeze.

Mary: The truth is those men broke into my chambers and I was raped.
Lola: Dear God.

The time has come for you to either dole out mercy or to crush them all but, whatever you choose, their is no turning back.

Catherine

Mary, you're not even armed. Good lord!

Leith

You will be hanged for what you did for me. You will suffer and die and I will live! In a hundred years, as Queen I will be remembered and your name will be forgotten. I'll see that you are erased from history and may God have mercy on your soul.

Mary

Mary: This notion that we can put the pieces back together, I wanted to believe that we could, that we just needed to find these men and punish them, but now I realize I can't change the fact that...
Francis: You blame me for what happened.
Mary: I know it's irrational, but it feels forever linked to you and to us.

Mary: I've had some time to think. I believe that we should lead separate lives.
Francis: What does that mean?
Mary: That we will continue to work together as King and Queen, but I will be your wife in name only.
Francis: I can't do that. I won't.
Mary: We won't be the first people in history to do so.
Francis: If you're talking about my parents, we are nothing like them. I would do anything for you, Mary. I love you and you love me.
Mary: Look where that love has brought us.

Henry: Ahh Kenna. With death comes wisdom. What did I ever see in her?
Catherine: Well it was her ass. You mentioned it many times.
Kenna: Are you talking to me?
Catherine: Why would I talk to you?
Kenna: You just said something about my ass.
Catherine: Not everything is about your ass KENNA. Move it out of the way.

When Mary returns I don't want her to see me cowed and powerless, pretending I am blind to injustice. I want her to see the man and the king she thought she married.

Francis

Antoine: Where are you off to, brother?
Conde: Why don't I have a normal family?
Antoine: Because you're a prince of the blood and a brother to the King.
Conde: You're not charming me tonight.
