Quotes from Ian Bannen's Characters

View All
    1. Robert the Bruce: I have nothing. Men fight for me because if they do not, I throw them off my land and I starve their wives and their children. Those men who bled the ground red at Falkirk, they fought for William Wallace, and he fights for something that I never had. And I took it from him, when I betrayed him. I saw it in his face on the battlefield and it's tearing me apart.
    2. Robert the Bruce's leprous father: All men betray. All lose heart.
    3. Robert the Bruce: I don't wanna lose heart. I wanna believe as he does.
    From Braveheart. Submitted by Sofia A (17 months ago)
