Quotes 

• Arthur : Where have you been?

  Merlin : Were you worried about me?

  Arthur : No. I was making sure we weren't being followed.

  Merlin : You came back to look for me.

  Arthur : All right. It's true. I came back 'cause you're the only friend I have and I couldn't bear to lose you.

  Merlin : Really?

  Arthur : Don't be stupid.

• Merlin : When Bruta was on his deathbed, he asked to be taken deep into the forest. There, with the last of his strength, he thrust his sword into a rock. If his lineage was ever questioned, this would form a test. Only a true king of Camelot could pull the weapon free.

  Arthur : Are you making this up?

  Merlin : Of course not.

  Arthur : All right. If it's true, why haven't I heard this story?

  Merlin : Well, history isn't really your strong point, is it?

• Arthur : I've never heard so much rubbish in my life.

  Merlin : Are you calling Gaius a lier?

  Arthur : No, I'm calling you an idiot.

• Arthur : Did you lose 'em?

  Merlin : We're safe.

  Arthur : You're sure?

  Merlin : Do I look like an idiot?

  Arthur : Yes.

  Merlin : [to Gwen]  He doesn't change, does he?

• Sir Leon : No, Arthur. Is YOU the people love, and you they will lay down their lives for. I know that I would ride into the mouth of hell for you.

  Sir Percival : And I.

  Merlin : And I.

  Arthur : To the mouth of hell it is.

• Merlin : When the sword was thrust into the stone, the ancient king foretold that one day it would be freed again, at a time when Camelot needed it most. The man who freed it would unite the land of Albion and rule over the greatest kingdom the world has ever known. That man is you, Arthur.

  Arthur : You're making this up.

  Merlin : Why would I do that? Your head's already as big as your waist. I believe it, though. And I believe in you. I always have.

• Arthur : [about his new sword]  You know, this thing's not bad.

  Merlin : Thought you might like it.

• Arthur : I thought we were friends.

  Morgana : As did I, but, alas, we were both wrong.

  Arthur : You can't blame me for my father's sins.

  Morgana : It's a little late for that. You've made it perfectly clear how you feel about me and my kind. You're not as different from Uther as you'd like to think.

  Arthur : Nor are you.

  Morgana : I'm going to enjoy killing you, Arthur Pendragon.
