Robin Hood : Do you yield?
Little John : I can't bloody swim.
Robin Hood : Do you yield?
Little John : Yes.

[the outlaws are passing a jug of mead around a circle; Hal finishes, then starts to pass the bottle past Azeem]
Robin Hood : Has English hospitality changed so much that a friend of mine's not welcome?
Hal : But he's a savage, sire.
Robin Hood : That he is... but no more than you or I. And don't call me sire.
[Hal offers the jug to Azeem]
Azeem : Regretfully, I must decline. Allah forbids it.
Little John : Your bloody loss, mate.

[after causing Robin to fall in the river]
Will Scarlett : There was a rich man from Nottingham/ who tried to cross a river/ What a dope/ he tripped on a rope/ Now look at him shiver. Beg for mercy, rich man.
Robin Hood : I beg of no man, as you can see I have nothing, not even my sword.
Little John : Any man who travels with two servants and says he has no money, is either a fool or a liar.
Will Scarlett : Yeah, he's a liar.

Will Scarlett : It was your anger that drove them apart! It's not a lie! You ruined my life! I have more reason to hate you than anyone. But I found myself daring to believe you. What I want to know brother, is will you stay with us and finish what you've started?
Robin Hood : I have a brother? I have a brother!
[hugs and holds Will]
Robin Hood : So I'll stand with you, side by side. Until the end.
Bull : Until the end!
Little John : We are all bloody in!
Friar Tuck : Damn buggers!
Robin Hood : We finish this.

Little John : Are you bleedin' cracked, girl? You'd get hurt.
Fanny : I've given birth to eight babies. Don't you talk to me about gettin' hurt, ya big ox.

Robin Hood : My father was no devil worshiper. And I'll have words with any man who says otherwise. But he's right. I was a rich man's son. When I killed the sheriff's men, I became an outlaw like you.
Will Scarlett : You are nothing like us.
[leaves]
Little John : That is Will Scarlet. Take no notice of him, he's full of piss and wind. Come on lads, drink up. Don't talk about so much bloody rubbish. This here is the best that we simple men can expect. Here we're safe. We are kings!

Little John : Well, Robin of Locksley, you've got balls of solid rock.
