Robert Addie: Sir Guy of Gisburne

Quotes 

• 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!

• Captain : A poacher, my lord. See? Red-handed!

  Sir Guy of Gisburne : And soon one-handed.

• 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!

• Sarah de Talmont : I'll kill myself before I marry you.

  Sir Guy of Gisburne : Don't be so stupid!
