Will Guthrie Quotes in Rob Roy (1995)

Duke of Argyll: So, Mr. Cunningham, what are these principle sins that distress your mother? Dice? Drink? Or are you a buggerer of boys?

Archibald Cunningham: It is years, Your Grace, since I buggered a boy... And in my own defense, I must add, I thought him a girl at the moment of entry.

Duke of Argyll: [laughs] Do you hear that, Will? Young Cunningham here was unable to tell arse from quim. What say you to that?

Will Guthrie: I've heard that many Englishmen have that same difficulty.

Archibald Cunningham: He's a fair hand with a cleaver, it must be said.

Duke of Argyll: Oh, you do not think much of our highland weapons?

Archibald Cunningham: If I had to slaughter an ox, your grace, a Claymore would be my first choice.

Will Guthrie: You'd best use a musket. Save the beast a slow dying.

Archibald Cunningham: I would not need a musket for you, Guthrie.

Will Guthrie: I hear you back-stabbed Tam Sibbald.

Robert Roy MacGregor: Were you and Tam kin?

Will Guthrie: Near enough. I shagged his sister.

Killearn: [whispered aside] Likely so did Tam.
