Braveheart Quote

Robert's Father : I'm the one who's rotting, but I think your face looks graver than mine. Son, we must have alliance with England to prevail here. You achieved that. You saved your family; increased your land. In time you will have all the power in Scotland.
Robert the Bruce : Lands, titles, men, power... Nothing.
Robert's Father : Nothing?
Robert the Bruce : I have nothing. Men fight for me because if they do not, I throw them off my land and I starve their wives and children. Those men who bled the ground red at Falkirk fought for William Wallace. He fights for something that I never had. And I took it from him when I betrayed him. I saw it in his face on the battlefield and it's tearing me apart.
Robert's Father : All men betray. All lose heart.
Robert the Bruce : I don't want to lose heart! I want to believe as he does... I will never be on the wrong side again.
