Lord Howard Quotes:

  • Sir Christopher Hatton: Be warned by the atrocities in France! God-fearing Christians murdered by Papist cut-throats inflamed by hatred of the truth!

    Lord Howard: We know the Catholics take their orders from Spain. The Spanish speak openly of Mary Stuart as Queen of England in waiting.

    Queen Elizabeth I: [sharply] Mary Stuart is a Queen cast out by her own ungrateful nation.

    Sir Christopher Hatton: With respect, Majesty: a Catholic Queen. Your loyal Protestant supporters don't understand why Mary Stuart lives under our protection at our expense. Very considerable expense.

    Queen Elizabeth I: Mary Stuart is my cousin. She is our guest. And she is under our control.

    Lord Howard: But while she lives, Majesty, she is a beacon that draws our enemies' eyes and hopes.

    Queen Elizabeth I: [speculating] While she lives?

    Sir Christopher Hatton: She is the poison at the heart of England. The poison must be cut out.

    Queen Elizabeth I: You'd have me make a martyr of her. What is her crime?
