Quotes 

• [Porthos has been badly wounded protecting Bonnaire] 

  Porthos : [groaning]  Will I lose my arm?

  Aramis : [patting Porthos on his shoulder]  No, but you might lose your life

  Athos : That bad?

  Aramis : He requires needlework - and soon.

  Athos : Will he make it to Paris?

  Aramis : He won't make it to next village unless I get a chance to sew up that wound.

• Aramis : You were the Comte de la Fere, a son of the nobility? How many servants did it take to run this place?

  Athos : No more than 20, including my valet and housekeeper.

  Aramis : Quite modest then?

  Athos : Servants make me uncomfortable.

• [Athos stops Porthos from beating Bonnaire for designing slave ships] 

  Athos : It's our duty to protect him.

  Porthos : And turn a blind eye to his crimes?

  Athos : Slavery is cruel and disgusting, but... it's not a crime.

• Athos : You're dead. I watched you hang.

  Milady : You didn't watch, did you? You couldn't stay to see your beloved wife choking on the end of a rope.

  Athos : Remi...

  Milady : I seduced him. As soon as you fled, he cut me down and revived me. But look...

  [pulls away her choker to review the rope burn around her neck] 

  Milady : I still carry the token of your love.

• [as D'Artagnan rushes to rescue Athos, he spots a woman riding away from the burning chateau] 

  D'Artagnan : What happened? Who was that woman?

  Athos : Since we arrived, I felt her presence everywhere. I thought I was imagining it.

  D'Artagnan : Who? Who?

  Athos : My wife. She died five years ago now, by my orders. She was a cold-blooded murderer, so I had her taken from the house and hung from the branch of a tree.

  D'Artagnan : Look at me. Look at me! Are you saying the ghost of your dead wife tried to kill you?

  Athos : She's not dead, D'Artagnan. She survived.

• [last lines] 

  [Bonnaire's dreams of a tobacco empire are dashed when he is captured by the Spanish - with the help of the Musketeers] 

  Athos : [to D'Artagnan]  If only all wrongs were so easily corrected.

  [as Athos walks off, D'Artagnan catches a glimpse of Milady ducking down a dark street]
