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.

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.
