Quotes

Marie-Antoinette : [to her first-born, a daughter] Oh, you were not what was desired, but that makes you no less dear to me. A boy would have been the Son of France, but you, Marie Thérèse, shall be mine.

Marie-Antoinette : [in the gardens] Welcome to my little village!

Ambassador Mercy : Madame du Barry would like to offer you some diamonds.
Marie-Antoinette : I have enough diamonds.
Ambassador Mercy : Snubbing the King's favorite is publicly criticizing the King's behavior. All you need to do is say a few words to her; because of rank she is not allowed to speak to you first.
Marie-Antoinette : Well, I certainly have nothing to say to her. And why should I approve of his cavorting with a harlot?
Ambassador Mercy : [reproachfully] Your Royal Highness!
Marie-Antoinette : Well, that's what she is. Everyone knows that she's from a brothel and that title was bought for her.
Ambassador Mercy : Your mother and I are very concerned. Du Barry has been complaining to the King that you will not address her, and you cannot afford to fall out of favor with the King. Especially as your marriage... not exactly on solid ground.
Marie-Antoinette : [annoyed] Fine. I'll talk to her.
-
Ambassador Mercy : Do you realize the consequences of an unconsummated royal marriage? That it could be annulled? Your mother has asked that you take this matter very seriously. And do everything in your power to - *inspire* the dauphin.
Marie-Antoinette : I'll do what I can. Of course, I want to please the dauphin *and* my mother.
-
Duchesse de Polignac : [looking at a scandalous pamphlet] And here you're having an orgy with quite a big group. I think I'm here sucking your toes.
Marie-Antoinette : Don't they ever tire of these ridiculous stories?
Duchesse de Polignac : Oh, and they say you gave Thomas Jefferson a special tour of your gardens. Is Jefferson admiring the royal bush?
-
Ambassador Mercy : The French can be fickle and Her Majesty would do well to be more attentive. Life is getting harder for the people of France. The bread shortage is grave.
Marie-Antoinette : Well, there must be something the King can do to ease their sufferings. Tell the court jeweler to stop sending diamonds.
[to Marie Therese]
Marie-Antoinette : You don't need any diamonds, do you?
[Marie Therese shakes her head back-and-forth]
Marie-Antoinette : No.
