Prince Geoffrey Quotes in The Lion in Winter (1968)

Prince Richard: [the sons - in the dungeon - think they hear Henry approach] He's here. He'll get no satisfaction out of me. He isn't going to see me beg.

Prince Geoffrey: My you chivalric fool... as if the way one fell down mattered.

Prince Richard: When the fall is all there is, it matters.

Prince Geoffrey: I know. You know I know. I know you know I know. We know Henry knows, and Henry knows we know it.

[smiles]

Prince Geoffrey: We're a knowledgeable family.

[to Prince John]

Prince Geoffrey: If you're a prince, there's hope for every ape in Africa.

Eleanor: And that's to be the king.

Prince Geoffrey: And I'm to be his Chancellor. Has he told you? John will rule the country, while I run it. That is to say he gets to spend the taxes that I raise.

Eleanor: How nice for you.

Prince Geoffrey: It's not as nice as being king.

Henry II: We've made you Duke of Brittany, is that so little?

Prince Geoffrey: No one ever thinks of crown and mentions Geoff, why is that?

Henry II: Isn't being chancellor power enough?

Prince Geoffrey: It's not the power I feel deprived of; it's the mention I miss. There's no affection for me here; you wouldn't think I'd want that, would you?

Prince Geoffrey: You don't think of me much.

Henry II: Much? I don't think of you at all
