Together we shall invade France and bring to an end the adventures of that libertine monarch, King Francis.
That would make me very happy.
It will also make you king of France.

Together we shall invade France and bring to an end the adventures of that libertine monarch, King Francis.
That would make me very happy.
It will also make you king of France.
[to Master Wyatt] You are a poet as I am a woman. Poets and women are always free with their hearts, are they not?
There's only one way to reach the King's ear, and that is through the good offices of Cardinal Wolsey.
We heard some rumors, Mr More, that the cardinal advocates the French interests.
Only when he considers them to be in ours.
[in a play] You give us no choice but to attack and breach your defenses!
No knight shall ever breach mine.
Lady, Desire overcomes all.
[to Wolsey] What we lack in men, we can more than make up for in ships. We are in an island race, Cardinal. We have the best and bravest sailors in the world. I will have the greatest navy.
Ships are expensive, your Majesty.
My father was a clever man, your Eminence. A shrewd man. A businessman. He left me a great deal of money, your Eminence. I intend to spend it!
Well, do you like it?
Should I like something that accuses me of being cruel?
But you are cruel Mistress Anne.
Am I? You have no claim on me Master Wyatt.
I have the same claim as every other lover to whom their heart has been freely given.
[to Master Wyatt] You are a poet as I am a woman. Poets and women are always free with their hearts, are they not?
No
