Memorable quotes for
"Robin of Sherwood" The Children of Israel (1985)


Sarah de Talmont: You made an enemy today.
Joshua de Talmont: A man who never made an enemy never made anything.

Sarah de Talmont: Everything about you disgusts me. Your arrogance, your cruelty, your ignorance and your conceit! How did you think that I could marry you? You, with my people's blood on your hands! To be your wife? To renounce everything that I believe in? I loathe you, I despise you, and I'd rather die than have anything to do with you!
Sir Guy of Gisburne: You're hysterical. It's been an ordeal, I know. I can see that you need a man to match your spirit...

Sir Guy of Gisburne: My Lord, I thought...
Robert de Rainault: You thought, did you Gisburne? What a pity I wasn't here. When did you have this thought of yours? While I was in London? Or was it perhaps more recent? Surely such an earth-shattering event would linger in the memory? Or was it this morning perhaps, while I was being attacked?
Sir Guy of Gisburne: Attacked, My Lord?
Robert de Rainault: Ten Miles from Nottingham, by Robin Hood's men! That was when I had my thought, Gisburne. And do you know what it was? A simple, uncomplicated thought: Where is Gisburne? Where is the escort that I asked for in my letter?
Sir Guy of Gisburne: Your letter? Your letter says that you will be back in four days, dated the 8th!
Robert de Rainault: The 7th, Gisburne. The 7th! Don't try to get out of it!
Sir Guy of Gisburne: But My Lord...
Robert de Rainault: But! But! You're the butt of everyone in Nottingham, aren't you?
Sir Guy of Gisburne: You insult me!
Robert de Rainault: I do! And will, as long as you continue to give me cause.

Sarah de Talmont: I'll kill myself before I marry you.
Sir Guy of Gisburne: Don't be so stupid!

Robert de Rainault: You forget who I am!
Joshua de Talmont: Not at all. You are my servant.
Robert de Rainault: Your what?
Joshua de Talmont: Certainly. You have borrowed money from me. "The borrower is servant to the lender." Book of Proverbs, part of your Bible as well as of ours.
Robert de Rainault: I'll have the flesh whipped from off your back!
Joshua de Talmont: That will not discharge your debt, My Lord.

Much: Sir, what did he see in the book that made him go mad?
Joshua de Talmont: His own wickedness?

Robert de Rainault: Where's Gisburne?
Joshua de Talmont: He took my daughter!
Robert de Rainault: Yes, I thought that might be it. He's very 'susceptible'.

Little John: Why can't you admit we were wrong?
Will Scarlet: Because we were UNLUCKY!

Joshua de Talmont: The most beautiful thing anyone can do, Sarah, is forgive. It is also the sweetest form of revenge.

Sarah de Talmont: Why do they hate us?
Joshua de Talmont: Because it is easier to hate than to understand. They hate each other for the same reason. No, for the same lack of reason.

Captain: A poacher, my lord. See: redhanded.
Sir Guy of Gisburne: And soon one handed.

Robin of Loxley: Send me a rich sheriff, with his wagons groaning with money...

Joshua de Talmont: Your sickness needs more than a leech, my lord Sheriff. Envy is hatred without a cure.

Robert de Rainault: He's made his own noose, Gisburne. It only remains to put it around his neck.

Joshua de Talmont: We are Gods flies, Sarah, and time will free the fly and cage the eagle.

Will Scarlet: You're jews...
Joshua de Talmont: We are, and what are you?
Will Scarlet: Lucky, I reckon.

Will Scarlet: I've been wrong before. I'm not saying your right all the time, cos you're not, but... you brought us all together and there's only one leader.
