[after causing Robin to fall in the river]
Will Scarlett: There was a rich man from Nottingham who tried to cross a river. What a dope, he tripped on a rope. Now look at him shiver. Beg for mercy rich man.
Robin of Locksley: I beg of no man, as you can see I have nothing, not even my sword.
Little John: Any man who travels with two servants and says he has no money, is either a fool or a liar.
Will Scarlett: Yeah, he's a liar.

Azeem: A wise man once said: 'There are no perfect men in the world; only perfect intentions.'

  
7
[the Sheriff has said he'll cut out Robin Hood's heart with a spoon]
Guy of Gisborne: Why a spoon, cousin? Why not an axe?
Sheriff of Nottingham: Because it's DULL, you twit, it'll hurt more.

  
8
Azeem: The hospitality in this country is as warm as the weather.

  
9
Azeem: Where I come from, we talk to our women. We do not drug them with plants.

  
10
Sheriff of Nottingham: Wait a minute. Robin Hood steals money from my pocket, forcing me to hurt the public, and they love him for it?
[Scribe nods]
Sheriff of Nottingham: That's it then. Cancel the kitchen scraps for lepers and orphans, no more merciful beheadings, and call off Christmas.

  
11
Sheriff of Nottingham: [to a wench] You. My room. 10:30 tonight.
Sheriff of Nottingham: [to another wench] You. 10:45... And bring a friend.

[Robin has been knocked down once by John Little]

Robin of Locksley: And you. You travel ten thousand miles to save my life and leave me to be butchered.

Robin of Locksley: 5.
Robin of Locksley: [to Azeem] He can't count anyway.

  
15
Friar Tuck: This is grain, which any fool can eat, but for which the Lord intended a more divine means of consumption. Let us give praise to our maker and glory to his bounty by learning about... BEER.

  
16
Mortianna: ...recruit the beasts that share our god.
Sheriff of Nottingham: Animals?

Sheriff of Nottingham: Hired thugs... Ahh brilliant.

  
17
Azeem: Salaam, little one.
Small Girl: Did God paint you?
Azeem: Did God paint me?
[laughs]
Azeem: For certain.
Small Girl: Why?
Azeem: Because Allah loves wondrous varieties.

  
18
Marian: You came for me... You're alive...
Robin of Locksley: I would die for you.

  
19
Robin of Locksley: Do you yield?
Friar Tuck: I'd rather roast in hell.

  
20
Sheriff of Nottingham: Locksley. I'll cut your heart out with a spoon.
Robin of Locksley: Then it begins.

  
21
Robin of Locksley: You were to tell me this to get close to me and then kill me, isn't that right, Will?
Will Scarlett: Well, that depends on you Locksley. I never trusted you. That's no secret. What I wanna know is, is are you gonna finish what you started? I want to know if he's gonna turn and run like the spoiled little rich boy I always took him for.
Robin of Locksley: Did I wrong you in another life, Will Scarlett? Where does this intolerable hatred for me come from?
Will Scarlett: From knowing... that... that our father loved you more than me... our father... we are brothers Robin of Locksley. I am the son of the woman who replaced your dead mother for a time. It was your anger that drove them apart.
Robin of Locksley: I have a brother... I have a brother, I will stand by you.

  
22
Azeem: No man controls my destiny... especially not one who attacks downwind and stinks of garlic.

  
23
Robin of Locksley: I had to try.
Azeem: *I* would have succeeded.

  
24
Guy of Gisborne: Might I have the pleasure of your name, before I have you run through?

  
25
Sarah: Step into the light. Turn around.
Robin of Locksley: Am I to dance next?

  
26
[Coming to a wide river]
Azeem: In my dreams alone have I imagined such a place.
Robin of Locksley: Then imagine a way to cross it.

  
27
[Wrestling in a river]
Robin of Locksley: Do you yield?
Little John: I can't bloody swim.
Robin of Locksley: Do you yield?
Little John: Yes.
Robin of Locksley: Good. Then put your feet down.

  
28
Marian: There is a price on your head.
Robin of Locksley: How much?
Marian: One hundred gold pieces.
Robin of Locksley: Is that all? I shall have to annoy the good Sheriff more. Soon it will be a thousand.
Marian: For a thousand, I would turn you in myself.

  
29
Marian: Robin, do something for me.
Robin of Locksley: What?
Marian: Take a bath.

  
30
Little John: Are you bleedin' cracked, girl? You'd get hurt.
Fanny: I've given birth to eight babies. Don't you talk to me about gettin' hurt, ya big ox.

  
31
Marian: How is it, that a once-arrogant young nobleman has found contentment, living rough with the salt of the earth?
Robin of Locksley: I've seen knights in armor panic at the first hint of battle. And I've seen the lowliest, unarmed squire pull a spear from his own body, to defend a dying horse. Nobility is not a birthright. It's defined by one's actions.

  
32
Azeem: Is she worth it?
Robin of Locksley: Worth dying for.

  
33
Sheriff of Nottingham: Do you mind Locksley? We've just been married.

  
34
Duncan: [to Marian] He fancies you m'lady. I may be blind but there are some things I still see.

  
35
Will Scarlett: No. I'll do that. You cover us with your bow.
Robin of Locksley: No Will. It's too dangerous.
Will Scarlett: So is your aim.

  
36
Peter Dubois: For England!

  
37
Azeem: [holding Robin Hood back] Come my friend! Make his sacrifice an act of honor! Come now.

  
38
Duncan: Curse those Moors and Saracens. If it wasn't for their ungodly ways, master Robin would never have left. What manner of name is Azeem? Scottish, Cornish?
Azeem: Moorish.

  
39
Guy of Gisborne: Harboring felons, are you milady?
Marian: They're thieves, you imbecile. They're stealing my horses.
Guy of Gisborne: Lucky they didn't steal your virtue as well.

  
40
Will Scarlett: Fuck me! He cleared it.

  
41
[Azeem shows Guy's approaching men with a telescope. Robin peers at it, bewildered]
Azeem: How did your uneducated kind ever take Jerusalem?

  
42
[after escaping from the Turks' dungeon]
Azeem: Why did you cut me free, Christian?
Robin of Locksley: Whatever blood is in your veins, no man deserves to die in there.

  
43
[Last line, spoken to the camera]
Friar Tuck: Come on, get out of it. We waste good celebration time.

  
44
Marian: It's interesting to hear you say that.
Robin of Locksley: I didn't. My father did.
Marian: Did the holy quest erase your hatred of him?
Robin of Locksley: I don't know. All I know is that our last words in this world were spoken in anger. I was lost after my mother died. My father too, and for a short time he found comfort in the arms of another woman, a peasant woman. I thought he was betraying my mother's memory.
Marian: So he gave her up?
Robin of Locksley: For the love of a twelve-year-old boy who would never forgive him.

  
45
Robin of Locksley: What do you know of women?
Azeem: Where I come from, Christian, there are women of such beauty, that they can possess a man's mind so that he would be willing to die for them.
Robin of Locksley: Wait a minute. Is that why you were to be executed? Because of a woman?
[laughs]
Robin of Locksley: That's it, isn't it? That's it!
Azeem: It is close to sunset.
Robin of Locksley: You painted old hound, who was she? The mullah's daughter? Another man's wife? What's her name?
Azeem: Is there no sun in this cursed country? Which way is East?
Robin of Locksley: Her name.
Azeem: East!
Robin of Locksley: Her name.
Azeem: Jasmina.
Robin of Locksley: [points] That way.

  
46
Robin of Locksley: Marian, I've returned to my home to find it destroyed, and my father murdered! And the only clues to why are in the ramblings of an old blind man.
Marian: But all I remember of you is a spoiled bully who used to burn my hair as a child.
Robin of Locksley: Please allow that years of war and imprisonment may change a man.
Marian: Robin, whatever happened between you and your father, you mustn't believe... what they accused him of.
Robin of Locksley: I don't.

  
47
[the Sheriff is preparing to rape Marian to impregnate her, even as Robin and Azeem are trying to break down the door]
Sheriff of Nottingham: I can't do this with all that racket!

  
48
Friar Tuck: [singing drunkenly] Old King Richard's gone to war, loves his wine and warring/But for those of us who stay at home, there's only beer and whoring/Play the music, dance the day, think not on tomorrow...
Guy of Gisborne: FRIAR! I'm sure you shall find it much more difficult to sing with a sword in your gullet!
Friar Tuck: Yes, my lord.
[laughs, to himself]
Friar Tuck: You pig.

  
49
Sheriff of Nottingham: What a beautiful child. So young, so alive, so unaware of how precarious life can be. I had a very sad childhood, I'll tell you about it sometime. I never knew my parents, it's amazing I'm sane.

  
50
Sheriff of Nottingham: Marian, our union would allow these children to grow up as my allies. You understand... I cannot allow them to grow up as my enemies.
Marian: I have no choice.
Sheriff of Nottingham: That's true.
