Sir Brian de Bois-Guilbert Quotes in Ivanhoe (1952)

Minor Role: Milord, there is a stranger at your gate who begs shelter. He is a Jew who calls himself Isaac of York.

Sir Brian de Bois-Guilbert: I share no roof with an infidel.

Wamba: Why not, sir knight? For every Jew you show me who's not a Christian, l'll show you a Christian who's not a Christian.

Sir Brian de Bois-Guilbert: Rebecca, you must blame the fates that it was I who loved you, and not Ivanhoe - for you were always mine, and only mine - God keep you.

[dies]

Rebecca: My lady, in death he spoke the truth.

Lady Rowena: Do you still love Ivanhoe?

Rebecca: No, my lady. I stole a little happiness, perhaps - but not from you - or him - only from my dreams.

Prince John: To the confusion and confining of that cursed death's-head knight. Why could you fools not kill him on the field?

Sir Hugh De Bracy: Because he was no fool, my liege.

Prince John: How can a Norman hold the throne of England when the knights who are his strength go down like chaff beneath an unknown Saxon mountebank?

Sir Brian de Bois-Guilbert: Neither a mountebank, nor yet unknown. I road against that self-same knight at Acre in the war.

Prince John: Then tell us who he is.

Sir Brian de Bois-Guilbert: The favored henchman of your brother Richard, my liege, Wilfred of Ivanhoe.

Prince John: Ivanhoe here in England?

[turning to his advisor]

Prince John: You told me he was dead!

Sir Brian de Bois-Guilbert: He should be and he shall be when he and I meet again. I carry his death warrant here against my breast.
