A Knight Quotes in Camelot (1967)

[first lines]

A Knight: The rules of battle are not for Lancelot Du Lac, Your Majesty! Let us attack now while they sleep!

King Arthur: [firmly] We will attack when I give the command - at dawn.

[the knight leaves, and Arthur begins to talk to himself]

King Arthur: Oh, Merlyn, Merlyn, why is Ginny in that castle, behind walls I cannot enter? How did I blunder into this agonizing absurdity? Where did I stumble? How did I go wrong? Should I not have loved her?

[sighs]

King Arthur: Then I should not have been born! Oh, Merlyn, I haven't got much time. Within an inch of sunlight, the arrows begin to fly. If I am to die in battle, please, please do not let me die bewildered!

Merlyn: [voice only, far off in the distance] Think back, Arthur! Think back!

A Knight: There's a poison in this Court that will kill us all.
