Prince Derek Quotes in The Swan Princess (1994)

Rogers: What else is there? She says, "Is beauty all that matters?", and you say, "What else is there?"!

Prince Derek: It was dumb. I know!

Rogers: You should write a book: "How to Offend Women in Five Syllables or Less".

Prince Derek: What? You're all I ever wanted. You're beautiful!

Odette: Thank you. But what else?

Prince Derek: What else?

Odette: Is beauty all that matters to you?

Queen Uberta: Derek, what else?

Prince Derek: [stammers; to Odette] What else is there?

Princess Odette: Will you love me, Derek? Until the day I die?

Prince Derek: No, Odette, much longer. Much longer.

Prince Derek: [about the ball] But please, mother! Don't turn it into one of your beauty pageants!

Queen Uberta: Oh! No, no, no, no, no! It's just a few friends...

[She waits until Derek is out of earshot]

Queen Uberta: ...And, their daughters...

Odette: [Odette is dying] Derek... I-I feel so weak... I think... I'm...

Prince Derek: [after Odette has died] I made the vow for her. Do you hear? THE VOW I MADE WAS FOR HER!

Rothbart: No need to shout!

Prince Derek: Don't let her die.

Rothbart: Is that a threat?

Prince Derek: Don't you dare let her die!

Rothbart: Oh, it is a threat.

Prince Derek: You're the only one with the power. Now, *do it*!

[Rothbart throws him aside]

Rothbart: Only if you defeat... me!

Odette: You have to make a vow of everlasting love...

Prince Derek: I'll make it. I'ts all I've ever wanted.

Rogers: Think, you must see something other than Odette's beauty.

Prince Derek: Of course I do, Rogers. She's like... And then... How about... Am I right?

Queen Uberta: Just make sure you're here tomorrow night.

Prince Derek: Tomorrow night?

Queen Uberta: Um, the ball!

Prince Derek: Mother, I can't!

Queen Uberta: [blubbering, sputtering]

Prince Derek: Please, mother... don't do the lip thing.

Prince Derek: [ready for target practice] The Great Animal's never gonna give her up without a fight.

Rogers: You're not still thinking she's alive?

Prince Derek: When I find the Great Animal, Rogers, I'll find Odette.

Rogers: Oh, Derek. You've looked everywhere. She's not coming back. The whole kingdom knows that.

Prince Derek: The whole kingdom's wrong! Odette's alive, and I'm gonna find her.

Prince Derek: [King William's captain collapses at the doorway; Derek, Bromley, and Lord Rogers run to his side and Derek recognizes him] It's King William's captain!

[he faints]

Prince Derek: Odette...

[takes off]

Rogers: Derek! Wait!

Prince Derek: [rides his horse into the woods] Odette!

[dismounts and checks the abandoned carriage]

Prince Derek: Odette? Odette!

[Derek finds Odette's locket and finds King William unconscious on the ground]

Prince Derek: King William!

King William: [weakly] Derek.

Prince Derek: Who did this?

King William: It came so quickly. A great animal!

Prince Derek: Where is Odette?

King William: Listen to me, Derek. It's not what it seems. It's not what it seems.

Prince Derek: What's not? Where is Odette?

King William: [last words] Odette is... Odette... is... g-g-g-gone...

[he dies, leaving Derek in shock]

Prince Derek: ODETTE!

Rothbart: Hello, little prince.

Prince Derek: Who are you?

Rothbart: Went and pledged your love to another, eh?

Prince Derek: What are you talking about? This is Odette

Rothbart: No, Odette is mine.

Prince Derek: It's you! You have no power here. I made a vow, a vow of everlasting love.

Rothbart: You made a vow all right. A vow of everlasting... death.

Odette: Will you love me, Derek? Until the day I die?

Prince Derek: No, much longer Odette. Much longer.
