Little John: Aw, come on, Robbie. Climb the castle walls. Sweep her off her feet. Carry her off in style.

Little John: So she's got class? So what?

Robin Hood: Maid Marian?
Friar Tuck: Yeah. She's gonna give a kiss to the winner.
[laughs]

Robin Hood: Ah, but remember faint hearts never won fair lady. Fear not, my friends.
