THE TUDORS SEASON TWO SENTENCE STARTER (PART TWO)

s02e06 - s02e10

❛ Will you come to my bed tonight? ❜

❛ You are marrying into a great family. You will do it, whether you like it or not. Do you understand? ❜

❛ Something's going to happen to me. ❜

❛ Don't talk like this. Nothing is going to happen to you. ❜

❛ I'm unable to give a King a son; a son to be the living image of his father. ❜

❛ It's all right. Everything is going to be all right. Please don't cry. I love you. I'll look after you, I swear. ❜

❛ I like you and enjoy your company. But you have a reputation: you gamble and you whore. You sail close to the wind. God forbid it should ever blow you onto the rocks. ❜

❛ I have no doubt what so ever that Your Majesty's reign will always be remembered. ❜

❛ Are you amusing yourself at my expense? ❜

❛ I swear to you it will never happen again. I love you too much. I have no right to ask you to believe me. But it's true. ❜

❛ Is she one of your mistresses? How many do you have? What are their names? ❜

❛ Here's the truth: you must shut your eyes and endure like your betters have done before you. ❜

❛ How can you say that to me? Don't you know that I love you a thousand times more than [name] ever did! ❜

❛ Don't you know that I can drag you down as quickly as I raised you? ❜

❛ This is lucky you have your bed already, madam, because if you did not, I wouldn't give it to you again. ❜

❛ Listen to me. You're the Queen! For the love of God, act like it! ❜

❛ At least seem happy. Not a heap of misery! ❜

❛ It's been tasted. It's not poisonous. ❜

❛ I am not "your dear". I am nobody's "dear!" I am a woman and I demand equal respect for my ideas! ❜

❛ Why are you here? To see the degradation that we have been forced to? ❜

❛ You may kiss me. Then you will leave me alone. Forever. ❜

❛ Anyone can see that the King is not so much in love with her as he used to be. ❜

❛ All this time and you're still in love with her! ❜

❛ Let me look at you. There you are. I have not seen you for so long. An eternity. And here you are! ❜

❛If I had a son, it would bring about a golden world. ❜

❛You ought to be careful, or I will have you cropped at the neck. ❜

❛ I did not bring you up to have opinions or to express them or to quarrel with those closest to the Crown. ❜

❛ I am carrying the King's son. We are on the edge of a golden world! ❜

❛ I'm certainly aware there are some at court who would like to see the queen replaced. ❜

❛ I was married before and I must confess, I rather like the liberty of not being married again. ❜

❛ You have just come from another's bed. No. Do not deny it. ❜

❛ Sometimes, my love, I think that with you I'm already condemned to live in purgatory. ❜

❛ His heart is very weak. I don't know if he will come back to us. ❜

❛ In such a crisis, all could disintegrate. So the centre has to hold, and we must hold it. ❜

❛ You know, I cannot think whether it would be a bad thing or a good thing if he died. ❜

❛ As Lord Protector, you would ipso facto...be King, ❜

❛ Though you are still a young man...you're not as young as you used to be. ❜

❛ I'm so happy you're well. I was so alarmed, so afraid. ❜

❛ It was a mistake to think I could behave like I used to. In any case, those carefree days are gone. ❜

❛ In the future, I won't see you unless your other family members are present. I just had to see you now. ❜

❛ What is this? Just when my belly is doing its business...I find you wenching with Mistress [name]! ❜

❛ You've lost my boy. I cannot speak of it. The loss is too great. ❜

❛ I see now that God will not grant me any male children. ❜

❛ You have no one to blame but yourself for this. ❜

❛ Because the love I bear you is so great...it broke my heart to see you loved others. ❜

❛ It's true what they have whispered. I shut my ears to them, but now I know it to be true. ❜

❛ I will treasure this all my life. And if they ever open my grave, they will find it again, right next to my heart. ❜

❛ You have overreached yourself. Believe me, you have placed yourself in very great danger. ❜

❛ Do you assume I no longer possess the power to crush you? It would be an easy mistake to make. ❜

❛ The king cannot satisfy a woman. He has neither the skill, nor the virility. ❜

❛ We have come so far. No one is going to be allowed to destroy us. No one. Do you understand? ❜

❛ I think we should drink a toast to new beginnings and to new friendships and to a mutually beneficial future. ❜

❛ If your master wants to deal with me, he must first apologize for all his ill treatment of me in the past. ❜

❛ Princes are different from us and are not to be easily understood. ❜

❛ It's come to my notice that some acts of treason and other offenses have been committed by those we loved and trusted. By members of our own court. ❜

❛ I want to tell you in this slippery world, you represent for me all that is innocent, everything that is good, unsullied, uncorrupted. ❜

❛ If anything should happen to me...will you promise to care for my daughter? ❜

❛ Please. For the love you bear our child, have mercy. ❜

❛ After everything we've been to each other. After everything we were. Please. One more chance. ❜

❛ My enemies have poisoned the air with their horrid lies. ❜

❛ I pray God will help me, for there is no truth in these allegations. ❜

❛ Sometimes, in order to defeat evil, one must learn to consort with the devil. ❜

❛ When am I to die? ❜

❛ My lady, I am obliged to tell you that your marriage to the king has been declared null and void. ❜

❛ Tell them to ready the horses. But tell no one of our destination. ❜

❛ I hear you say I will not die before noon. I am sorry for it, for I thought to be dead by that time and past my pain. ❜

❛ Yes, I heard the executioner was very good. And in any case, I have only a little neck. ❜

❛ Have you ever killed someone? What did it feel like? ❜

❛ I would really like to see someone die. Can I go to the execution with you? ❜

❛ I want her dead. I want it over with. Finished. Go and do it or, by God's blood, you will join her. ❜

❛ I swear to you, from tomorrow, everything will be different. We will be young and merry as we used to be. ❜

❛ If you would take my advice for what it's worth find a rich man to marry who is too stupid to know anything about politics. Then perhaps - unless you die in childbirth, which is likely...or the plague, which is almost inevitable - then you will be happy. ❜

❛ Forgive me. It's just that I so much want a new beginning. A renaissance. Sometimes it is hard to be reminded of things. ❜

❛ Tell me, was it all worth it? ���

THE TUDORS SEASON TWO SENTENCE STARTERS (PART ONE)

s02e01 - s02e05

❛ Although I have given sufficient proof of my loyalty to the king I must do nothing to provoke suspicion. ❜

❛ If you betray us...I will destroy your entire family. ❜

❛ You're incapable of fidelity. You always have been. ❜

❛ I shall never forget that we were once true friends. ❜

❛ Some people will blame her for everything! They will blame her if it rains or if the rains fail. They'll blame her for the wind that destroys our crops and the storms that sink our ships. It's all the fault of [name]. ❜

❛ Who gave you the poison? ❜

❛ You're a fool. And you will die for it. ❜

❛ You told me there was nothing intimate between you anymore. ❜

❛ You can't have three people in a marriage. Why can't you see that? ❜

❛ Let us stop this and mind our own business. Do you understand me? ❜

❛ She's a witch who deserves no other fate than to be dispatched to hell. ❜

❛ Here is a book of prophecy. This is the King, this is the Queen... and this is myself, with my head cut off. ❜

❛ If I could weep, I would weep tears of blood. ❜

❛ I have no intention of becoming your mistress. Nor anyone else's, for that matter. ❜

❛ My love, you have no reason to be suspicious. Nor will ever have. ❜

❛ We fought, and we failed. All I want now is to be left in peace. ❜

❛ I love you with my every breath. With every fibre of my being. I love you and I am yours. ❜

❛ I would never betray the secrets of a woman, especially a beautiful woman, who must naturally have a great many. ❜

❛ The fact is, the station you will be asked to occupy is not an easy one...especially to those not born to it. ❜

❛If I had not been born to be King, I would certainly not have wished that fate upon myself. ❜

❛ You dishonour the [name] family whom you serve. ❜

❛ Everything in life is ridiculous. And to suppose otherwise is human vanity. ❜

❛ We want to please the king. We want to make him beholden to us. ❜

❛ If I had to choose between extreme happiness and extreme sorrow, I would always choose sorrow. For when you are happy, you forget. You forget about spiritual things. you forget about God. But in your sorrow...he is always with you. ❜

❛ I want the people to love their new queen as I love her. ❜

❛ Store up your knowledge and your anger. Don't act impulsively, it's always a mistake. ❜

❛ There was an assassination attempt, either upon you or upon the queen. ❜

❛ I was sure his reign would be a golden age. I had such high hopes. ❜

❛ This is a new beginning. For me. For you. ❜

❛ I know of no Queen of England save my mother. And I will accept no other queen except my mother. ❜

❛ Please forgive me again, I am not very used to visitors anymore. They are mostly forbidden to me. ❜

❛ Your Majesty has given birth to a very healthy baby girl. ❜

❛ You and I are both young and by God's grace, boys will follow. ❜

❛ I am told that the lady is much dismayed at having given birth to a daughter and not the son she promised. ❜

❛ I think....I believe with all my heart that he still loves and cares for me. ❜

❛ Real life is raw and difficult. And you must face up to that fact. ❜

❛ If I were you, I'd be more careful about poking fun at those who have the power to hurt you. ❜

❛ How did you suppose no one would find out your secret? ❜

❛ Leave court. Go back to your family. See if they will have you. ❜

❛ I am here in kindness. I would welcome you back to court and reconcile you with your father...if you will only accept me as queen. ❜

❛ I recognize no queen but my mother. But if the king's mistress would intercede with the king on my behalf then I would be grateful. ❜

❛ I would rather lose my own son than to see any hurt come to you. ❜

❛ Do you not suppose they would conspire to plot against me? ❜

❛ You must be good to each other and to everyone else. Or if you cannot be good, be the least bad you can be. ❜

❛ He does nothing out of malice...but only the imperative of his conscience. ❜

❛ I know all about his conscience. He's been wearing it on his sleeve for years. ❜

❛You were always plain-speaking. It's one of the attributes I admire you for. ❜

❛ I do not willingly seek martyrdom. ❜

❛Say you are not angry with me. Please. If you left, and I thought so, I would feel-- I'd feel even more lonely than before. ❜

❛ I am not angry with you. But I am frightened. So very frightened. ❜

❛ I lost the baby. ❜

❛ From now on we must all be careful, you especially, not to lose the king's love. Or everything is lost. ❜

❛ You married him in secret and without asking our approval. He is such a nothing we could never have given our permission. ❜

❛ Since you acted brazenly and in spite of me, I shall cut off your allowance. ❜

❛ You and your fine, honest young man can rot in hell as far as I am concerned. ❜

❛ Indeed, I think myself fortunate to have found [name] and to be loved by him. ❜

❛ Do I have to ask your permission to fall in love? ❜

❛ Now we are royalty. Everything is different. ❜

❛ There really is no difference between us except that I shall die today and you tomorrow. ❜

❛ I am sorry for many things that are occurring in this kingdom. The good seem to suffer, and the wicked to prosper. ❜

❛ You're a free spirit. I love that. Everyone else constrains me. No one understands. ❜

❛ But the king can change his mind. He can do whatever he wills now. He has absolute power. You know that. ❜

❛ What he has given, he can take away. And what taken away, he can give back. ❜

❛ This is all I know of [name]. That she is my death...and I am hers. ❜

❛ Please. For the love I know you bear us...don't do this to us. ❜

❛ I love him. And I hate him. I hate in equal measure to my love. ❜

❛ Do you still have a passion for me? ❜

❛ Don't weep, my own darling. It's all right. Everything is going to be all right. ❜
