Quotes 

• Doggett : [on the Prince of Orange]  He did it again. How many more men will he kill? That's my commission gone to the blazes I dare say, but it had to be said.

  Richard Sharpe : [choking with grief]  Daniel Hagman... Harris... He won't kill anymore!

  Patrick Harper : [to Doggett]  Oh now you have caused trouble!

  [rides after Sharpe] 

• Harper : Do you still want to see Boney?

  Sharpe : More than ever.Might ask him for a job.

• [as the French advance on La Haye Sainte, beating their drums and shouting "Vive L'Empereur!"] 

  Patrick Harper : In all the years that I've been fighting the French... I have become sick and bloody tired of that shite music that they play.

• Patrick Harper : [handing a plate of cooked beef to Sharpe]  Eat! It's French. - It's good! - Though I am a bit of a cannibal, so I am!

• Patrick Harper : [during their pursuit of the fleeing French troops, points out Napoleon in the distance, whom they now get to see for the first time]  *Look*!

  Richard Sharpe : [in disbelief and delight]  I saw him! - *I saw him*!

  Patrick Harper : That's all I came for, so it is. - Goodbye, Colonel Sharpe!

  Richard Sharpe : Goodbye, Mr. Harper!

• Patrick Harper : [giving Sharpe a 'first hand' report]  I heard that straight from the horse's mouth! A gallopper of the 'Roast and Boiled', who'd heard it first hand from a 'Wallopping Mick' of the 'Six Skins', who saw them Prussians with his own eyes, so he did!

• Richard Sharpe : [regarding the Prince of Orange's blatant incompetence]  What an idiot! What a dirty little Dutch buffle-brained bastard! I'll ram his poxed crown up his Royal poxed arse, the blue-blooded twat!

  [rides off] 

  Patrick Harper : O dear, o dear, o dear...!

  [rides off, following Sharpe]
