Jannes Quotes:

  • Rameses: [to Nefretiri] Did you lose your head, my sweet?

    Sethi: [to Rameses] I sent you to Goshen to bring me the head of the jackal who would free the slaves. Where is it?

    Rameses: The slaves do not need a deliver now. They have Moses.

    Nefretiri: Is that a riddle?

    Rameses: [to Sethi] He gives them the priests' grain and one day in seven to rest. They call it "The Day of Moses."

    [as if it is a holiday]

    Jannes: This man makes himself a god.

    Nefretiri: I prefer him as a man.

    Rameses: You would prefer him as Pharaoh.

    Nefretiri: Are you afraid of Moses?

    Rameses: Yes, because now he holds Ethiopia in his left hand, Goshen in right, and you, my Pharaoh, are in-between them.

    Sethi: Do you imply that he would raise the slaves against me? I've been his father.

    Jannes: Ambition knows no father.

    Nefretiri: Moses could no more betray you than I could, Sethi.

    Sethi: He can tell me that when he arrives.

    Rameses: He will not be here, my father.

    Sethi: What? I sent for both of you.

    Rameses: His word is that he cannot attend you, being pressed by other matters.

    Sethi: [to Nefretiri] Did you hear that? Other matters?

    [Sethi spoke as in an a shout of anger, or shock]

    Sethi: [Sethi then gets up and clangs a gong, for an Egyptian servant, immediately a servent appears] My escort. I will ride with you, my son, to see what rears itself in Goshen... a city or treason.
