Lucy Griffiths: Marian

Quotes 

• Marian : [to Robin, as Djaq rushes out of the cave to get herbs]  So. "Never lie to a dying man."

  Robin Hood : You are not going to die. And I have never lied to you.

  Marian : Oh come on. We have never once spoken the truth to each other.

  Robin Hood : Now is not the time to argue.

  Marian : Do not *tell* me when it is the time to argue!

  [Robin chuckles] 

  Marian : What?

  Robin Hood : Well, I do not think there could be *much* wrong with you.

  Marian : I am serious! We have never once spoken the truth to each other! For instance, I call you a fool when I mean you are a hero. I criticize your actions and then mimic them myself as the Nightwatchman. I chastise Robin Hood...

  Robin Hood : Shh, shh.

  Marian : I will not be *shushed*- these might be my last words!

  Robin Hood : No, they will not be- they *cannot* be!... Because we should be together! I should never have left you. I should never have gone to war- it was a mistake! You were right. We wanted glory. But believe me, the battlefield is the *last* place you will find it.

  Marian : You'd always regret it if you haven't gone.

  Robin Hood : But not as much as I regret going. Not as much as I regret losing you. Marian, I should not have gone.

  Marian : [fighting tears]  Robin...

  Djaq : [running back in with the herbs]  I love you, you love me, we all love each other. Drink the wine.

• Marian : I'm a nuisance.

  Robin Hood : [smiling]  Yes, you are.

  Marian : [smiling weakly]  You're supposed to say no.

• Djaq : [Looking at Marian's infected wound]  My father treated the wounded in the battlefield. He said, "Never lie to a wounded man."

  Marian : Or was it "Never lie to a dying man?"

  Djaq : [pause]  He said that too.

• Robin Hood : I will expose him as the liar and the traitor that he is- then you will not have to marry him!

  Marian : Robin, please do not make this more difficult than it already is!

  Robin Hood : But you do not love him!

  Marian : [trying to make an excuse]  He has qualities!

• Djaq : I will cut you open. If I can find the damage, I will sew it up.

  Marian : And what are my chances?

  Djaq : If I do not do this- none. If I do- very little.

• Marian : I'm a nuisance.

  Robin Hood : Yes, you are.

  Marian : You're supposed to say no.

  Robin Hood : And you should be at home doing your embroidery.
