 Oliver Reed Quotation"You meet a better class of people in pubs." "I do not live in the world of sobriety." "My only regret is that I didn't drink every pub dry and sleep with every woman on the planet." "I believe that my woman shouldn't work outside the home. When I come home and I'm tired from filming all day, I expect her to be there and make sure that everything is cool for me. You know, like drawing my bath and helping me into bed. That's the kind of job she had and, in return for it, she can bear my children and if any man talks bad to her, I'll hit him." Movie Title: The Four Musketeers: Milady's Revenge (1974) as Athos: [Richilieu has given D'Artagnan a commission as a lieutenant in the Musketeers] D'Artagnan : It is too much! I cannot accept it. Athos, you take it. Athos : No, for the Comte de la Fêre it is too little; for Athos, too much. [after seeing Athos stumble down a flight of stairs] D'Artagnan : Athos, are you hurt? Athos : Hurt? What I am is drunk. Movie Title: The Devils (1971) as Grandier: Grandier : Hold my hand. It's like touching the dead, isn't it? Grandier : [Talking about Jeanne] Anything found in the desert of a frustrated life can bring hope. With hope comes love. With love comes hate. So I possess her. May God help her in her misery and unhappiness. Grandier : What fresh lunacy is this? A crocodile? Jeanne : They always spoke of your beauty, and now I see it with my own eyes and it is true. Grandier : Look at this thing that I am and learn the meaning of love. Grandier : Call me vain and proud, the greatest sinner ever to walk God's earth, but Satan's boy I could never be. I haven't the humility. Movie Title: Gladiator (2000) as Proximo: Maximus : I am required to kill, so I kill. That is enough. Proximo : That's enough for the provinces, but not enough for Rome. Proximo : Those giraffes you sold me, they won't mate. They just walk around, eating, and not mating. You sold me... queer giraffes. I want my money back. Proximo : Listen to me. Learn from me. I was not the best because I killed quickly. I was the best because the crowd loved me. Win the crowd and you will win your freedom. Proximo : Congratulations, you have very persuasive friends. Lucilla : My brother's had Gracchus arrested. We daren't wait any longer. We must leave tonight. Proximo will be here t midnight and take you to the gate. Your servant, Cicero will be waiting there with horses. [Maximus nods] Maximus : You have done all this? Lucilla : Yes. Maximus : [sighs] You risk too much. Lucilla : I have much to pay for. [Maximus shakes his head] Maximus : You have nothing to pay for. You love your son, you are strong for him. Lucilla : I am tired of being strong.(sighs) My brother hates all the world and you most of all. Maximus : Because your father chose me. Lucilla : No because my father loved you... and because I loved you. Maximus : A long time ago. [kisses her hand] Lucilla : [smiles] Was I very different then? Maximus : (shakes his head, touches her face with his finger) You laughed more. Lucilla : I have felt alone all my life, except with you. I must go. Maximus : Yes. [kisses Lucilla one last time] Maximus : Are you in danger of becoming a good man, Proximo? Proximo : Ha! Proximo : [addressing his new recruits] I am Proximo! I shall be closer to you for the next few days, which will be the last of your miserable lives, than that bitch of a mother who first brought you screaming into this world! I did not pay good money for your company. I paid it so that I might profit from your death. And just as your mother was there at your beginning, I shall be there at your end. And when you die - and die you shall - your transition will be to the sound of... [claps his hands] Proximo : Gladiators... I salute you. [Looking at some slaves] Proximo : Can any of them fight? I've got a match coming up. Slave Trader : Some are good for fighting, others for dying. You need both, I think. Proximo : [holding up a sword] Thrust this into another man's flesh, and they will applaud and love you for that. You may even begin to love them. Proximo : Some of you are thinking that you won't fight. Others, that you can't fight. They all say that. Proximo : In the end, we're all dead men. Sadly, we cannot choose how, or when. But what we can choose is how we decide to meet that end, so we are remembered forever as men. [His last words] Proximo : Shadows and dust. Proximo : So Spaniard, we shall go to Rome together and have bloody adventures. And the great whore will suckle us until we are fat and happy and can suckle no more. And then, when enough men have died, perhaps you will have your freedom. Proximo : I know that you are a man of your word, General. I know that you would die for honor, for Rome, for the memory of your ancestors. But as for me? I'm an entertainer. Maximus : Do you remember what it was to have trust, Proximo? Proximo : [unfamiliarly] Trust? Movie Title: The Pit and the Pendulum (1990) as Cardinal: Torquemada : Surely Rome understands that public executions discourage sin? Cardinal : The good Lord, you know, padre, he want us to love our neighbor, no roast him, mmm? No roast him ... [As Torquemada has the Cardinal bricked behind a wall] Cardinal : For the love of God! Torquemada : Yes, for the love of God. Cardinal : No! Gomez : No! Cardinal : No, I tell you, I havea de seal of de Pope! Gomez : Oh! He hasa de seal of de Pope! Cardinal : NO! Help me! Gomez : Help me! Cardinal : Someone help me! Gomez : Someone help me! Cardinal : No! No, I tell you! No, Help me! Help me someone! Cardinal : The Pope also want the Inquisition to stop the use of torture. And declare an amnesty on all heretics and witches. Hmm? Torquemada : Rome is behind the times. His Holiness is old and lost his zeal! Cardinal : He is the Pope! Torquemada : And I am the Inquisition! Cardinal : His Holiness also DEMAND...order you to return to Rome with me for an audience. Torquemada : I've received no such demand. Cardinal : [chuckles] I just deliver it! Movie Title: The Adventures of Baron Munchausen (1988) as Vulcan: [Vulcan seethes with jealousy as the Baron escorts his wife, Venus, to the ballroom] Vulcan : They've gone to the ballroom.
