Queen Leeza quotes from Reign

A saint can become a witch very quickly in the eyes of an angry mob.

I am married to the most powerful man in the world, and I will not be threatened by my damaged brother who is unfit to rule.

Stop starting at me, witch!

The Prince of Spain came to France whole, and left with an enormous piece of wood sticking out of his skull.

Queen Catherine

That is not true. We had our finest surgeon remove it.

I've received word from my husband, King Philip.

Queen Catherine

I'm aware who you married, Leeza, you don't have to keep saying it.

Having a disability doesn't disqualify a skilled applicant, not in Spain, and not here.

Queen Catherine

Yes, Spain is known for its equality and compassion. The Inquisition taught everyone that.

What about the shame you've brought to this family? Not to mention this country and to God himself?!

Queen Catherine

Enough! God himself has seen much worse and survived.

May matrimony set you on a more honorable path. God will be watching should you stray from it. As he watches all of his creatures.

Thank you, Your Majesty. God should be pleased to know that I have every intention of providing a happy life for Claude.

King Charles

Being King of France is a duty I was born to. I accept who I am and I will not abdicate.

Spoken like France's one true king.

Or a well-coached puppet.

Queen Catherine

Leeza, my child, oh, it's been so long.

Spare me the pleasantries, Mother. I'm not here to see you.

Well, then I suppose there's nothing to be done... except stay for the King's wedding.

Prince Henri

You can't be serious, Leeza!

Princess Claude

I was almost sent to a nunnery for following my heart!
