forgotten how good

First Knight is.

I need to remember to change my "Favorite Movie". I always say, "Runaway Bride" is my favorite because she needs to "figure out how SHE likes her eggs...". But RB has nothing on First Knight. It's such a perfectly romantic movie and is now {officially} or maybe always has been "my favorite movie"

Thought it deserved a blog.

Here are a few of my favorite quotes:

Guinevere: I'm not to be had for the wanting.

King Arthur: God uses people like you, Lancelot. Because your heart is open. You hold nothing back. You give all of yourself.
Lancelot: If you knew me better, you would not say such things.
King Arthur: Oh, hey, I take the good with the bad, together. I can't love people in slices.

King Arthur: For the first in my life, I wanted what all wise man say can't last; what can't be promised or made to linger any more than sunlight. I don't want to die without having felt its warmth on my face.

King Arthur: Lancelot, just a thought. A man who fears nothing is a man who loves nothing; and if you love nothing, what joy is there in your life? I may be wrong.

Lancelot: I dare not kiss so lovely a lady. I have but one heart to lose.

Guinevere: If there is any honor in you, promise me never to do that again.
Lancelot: I don't know about honor. But I promise you, I won't kiss you again till you ask me to.

King Arthur: You risked your life for another. There is no greater love.

Malagant: Self-sacrifice is very easy. It's having to sacrifice someone you love that puts your convictions to the test.

King Arthur: Only a fool wants what he can not have.

King Arthur: There are laws that enslave men, and laws that set them free.

King Arthur: May God grant us the wisdom to discover right, the will to choose it, and the strength to make it endure.

King Arthur: This is the heart of Camelot, not these stones, not these timbers, these palaces and towers. Burn them all and Camelot lives on, because it lives in us. Camelot is a belief that we hold in our hearts.

King Arthur: What we hold to be right, and good, and true IS right and good and true for all men. Otherwise we're just another robber tribe.

Guinevere: I want to marry you. Not your crown, not your army. Just you.

King Arthur: There's a peace only to be found on the other side of war. If that war should come I will fight it!

Guinevere: Love has many faces. I may look on you differently, but not with less love.

Guinevere: I only know one way to love my lord, and that is body and mind and soul.
