Renato Bartolomei: Beowulf
Quotes
-
Lord Erick : [Looking at Gabrielle] The lady of the ring. The legend of your beauty does you no justice. Your destiny has arrived. I have come to save you.
Beowulf : Lord Erick! My lord, this is madness. You cannot penetrate the ring of fire. Only Gabrielle's soulmate can pass through the flames. All other flesh is doomed.
[He shows his burnt left hand]
-
Beowulf : I will return, Gabrielle. I promise you.
-
Xena : What's the matter with your men? They look like they've seen a ghost.
Wiglaf : No, not a ghost: a legend. All these men can talk of is a chance to see you in action. To tell you the truth, I'm...
Beowulf : ...about to go and polish your blade. Is that right, Wiglaf?
Wiglaf : Fine, send me away.
-
Xena : I could have done so much good for the Viking people.
Beowulf : The Xena I remember could do more good with this sword than a hundred Viking queens could ever do. And the Xena I remember could never forget what happened in that swamp, the face of Gabrielle, the most loyal friend in the world.
Xena : I remember none of these things.
Beowulf : You may not remember them, but they are inside you.
-
Wiglaf : That's what Vikings do! Fighting gives our lives meaning!
Xena : Fighting gives your lives meaning. Do you have any idea how stupid that is?
Beowulf : Yeah? Well, it didn't sound stupid when it came from you.
Xena : From me?
Beowulf : Long ago it was Xena who first taught Odin to embrace violence and bloodlust.
Xena : Well, if that is true then I know I am not this Xena.
-
Xena : [to the vision of Gabrielle] Are you a demon? Or my own mind made mad?
Gabrielle : [as a vision] I am the truth of who you are. Our souls are united, Xena.
Beowulf : Xena? Xena, are you all right?
Xena : Yes. This Gabrielle truly loved Xena, didn't she?
Beowulf : And will till the end of time. Gabrielle saved you from what you were, as you must now save her.
Beowulf : I've heard the men talking. They say that Xena created this monster that awaits us.
Beowulf : Grinhilda.
Xena : It's true, then.
Beowulf : I have waited a long time to return this to you.
[He gives to Xena her chakram]
Xena : What's it for?
Beowulf : You'll know. When the time comes, you'll know.
-
Beowulf : [the woman he loves, Gabrielle, has just left] Not a word, Wiglaf... Not a word.
