QUOTES

Here are some quotes from the movie "Lady Jane".

"Which is why,madame for you...and yes, for me as well, there must not be another Roman Catholic in the english throne"

--John Dudley (talking with Lady Frances Brandon about their "scheme")

"Good Lord- are you still eating?"

--Henry Grey (retorting with Frances' unusual appetite)

"My lord, I am most honored..naturally. And I'm sure you're son is the most noble of all men. But I don't wish to marry anyone at present"

--Jane (talking to John Dudley upon discovering that she was going to marry Guilford)

"Ellen, take your mistress to the gallery"

--Frances Brandon (demanding Mrs.Ellen to take Jane to the gallery. And in those days, the gallery was a big, spacious room where children where whipped if they didn't obey orders.)

--John Dudley (talking about Jane's marriage and on how to convince her with Edward.)

"John...I do know I'm dying"

--Edward

"I wasn't whipped. There was a boy. If I did something bad, they'd beat him in my place. See? You should have been born heir to the throne. Or, maybe it'd rather been worse. You see, it was his duty. As it was mine- to suffer for his sufferings in my place. As it is your duty to obey your parents and your king"

"Now promise-that you'll marry him...for me"

--Edward

"Jane, you are not going to wear black again!"

"Congratulations, my lord- you're going to be married!"

--Sir John Gates (said this to Guilford while he was found... "sampling the pleasures of the Lady of the night")

"So I would prefer, after..after this is done, that we live...well, shall we say as cousins? Rather than as man and wife."

--Jane (setting up some "conditions" upon first meeting Guilford in her home's garden)

"Look, Dudley-are you sure you're son's the right man for my daughter?"

--Henry Grey (doubting Guilford's charms.)

"I can control him- he can be controlled"

--John Dudley (the response to Henry's doubtness)

"Good day. Is there, ah...anything you want?"

--Guilford (talking with "the branded man" upon entering the gate of his and Jane's new home.)

"Money? Do you know what's happened to the value of money?"

--Guilford (discussing the issue of money with Jane.)

"The brain is a brittle organ, Jane. The slightest pressure and it snaps. It isn't wrapped up in a little heart."

--Guilford

"Now my love-was that so hard?"

--Guilford (he actually said this 2 times. Before and After Jane became queen. This is the one before her reign.)

"Can the strong never be good?"

--Jane (pondering about the goodness, badness of people and "the place where they can't be tarnished".)

"My lady, you're majesty had named you, heir to his throne"

--John Dudley (announced this to Jane in front of so many people in the court. But then at that time, Jane didn't really know he was talking to her.)

"Long Live Queen Jane!"

--first John Dudley, then chorused by the other people.

"We want...I want...a real shilling"

--Jane (her first command to the court.)

"You stupid girl! Foolish, willful, little girl!...But after all, we are the queen."

--Jane (with Guilford, upon discovering that her royal court had abandoned a meeting.)

"I want...I want this to be over."

--Jane (pointing out her misery of being a ruler.)

"The Proverb says:'the wonder lasts nine days...and the puppy's eyes are open-so...what happens on the tenth day?"

--Mrs.Ellen (upon discovering that Jane's nine-day reign was over.)

"Who could have though that the black sheep, the prodigal of all prodigals..would find a love so pure...?"

--John Dudley (already imprisoned and upon meeting Guilford after months...and realized that Jane and Guilford did love each other.)

"Well, it would help if you promise not to steal my throne again!"

--Mary I (already queen at that time and upon meeting with Jane, who was asking the want to reprive.)

"I owe it to my daughter!"

--Henry Grey (said this before leading his army to London in Jane's name.)

"This is madness!"

--Jane

"Ma'am, I can't put it any plainer. After what has happened, if you want to marry Philippe, then Jane Grey and her husband must both die!"

--Renard, the Spanish Ambassador (discussing the marriage. The "after WHAT has happened" was the insurection led by Henry Grey in Jane's name.)

"Our savior said: 'I am the vine, I am the door'-was he the vine, was he the door?"
