• Guard : Volunteers comin' in!

  Faudron : [kneels]  William Wallace, we've come to fight and to die for you.

  William Wallace : Stand up, man, I'm not the Pope.

  Faudron : [smiles and stands]  My name is Faudron. My sword is yours. I brought you this.

  [reaches for something, Hamish tries to stop him] 

  Guard : We checked 'em for arms.

  Faudron : I brought you this.

  [pulls out a sash] 

  Faudron : My wife made it for you.

  William Wallace : Thank you.

  Stephen : [starts laughing]  Him? That can't be William Wallace. I'm *prettier* than this man!

  [to the sky] 

  Stephen : Alright, Father, I'll ask him.

  [to William] 

  Stephen : If I risk my neck for you, will I get a chance to kill Englishmen?

  Hamish : Is your father a ghost, or do you converse with the Almighty?

  Stephen : In order to find his equal, an Irishman is forced to talk to God.

  [to the sky] 

  Stephen : Yes, Father!

  [to Hamish] 

  Stephen : The Almight says, "Don't change the subject, just answer the fuckin' question."

  Hamish : Mind your tongue.

  Campbell : Insane Irish.

  Stephen : [draws a dagger on Campbell; everyone draws weapons]  Smart enough to get a dagger past your guards, old man.

  William Wallace : That's my friend, Irishman. And the answer to your question is "yes". You fight for me, you get to kill the English.

  Stephen : [grins]  Excellent!

  [removes his dagger] 

  Stephen : Stephen is my name. I the most wanted man on my island, except I'm not on my island, of course. More's the pity.

  Hamish : "Your island"? You mean Ireland?

  Stephen : Yeah. It's mine.

  Hamish : You're a madman.

  Stephen : [nods and starts laughing, then Hamish does as well]  I've come to the right place, then.

• Hamish : Some men are longer than others.

  Campbell : Your mother been telling ya stories about me again, eh?

• Campbell : I'm dying. Let me be.

  Hamish : No. You're going to live.

  Campbell : I've lived long enough to live free. Proud to see you become the man you are. I'm a happy man.

• William Wallace : [after being outthrown]  That's a good throw.

  Hamish : Aye. Aye, it was.

  William Wallace : I was wondering if you could do that when it matters.

  [Hamish stares at him] 

  William Wallace : As it - as it matters in battle.

  [Hamish continues staring] 

  William Wallace : Could you crush a man with that throw?

  Hamish : I could crush you, like a worm.

  Crowd : Oooohhh!

  William Wallace : You could?

  Hamish : Aye.

  William Wallace : Well, then do it.

  [to the crowd] 

  William Wallace : Would you like to see him crush me like a worm?

  [the crowd cheers] 

  Murron : Aye!

  William Wallace : [picks up a small stone]  Come do it.

  Hamish : You'll move.

  William Wallace : I will not.

  Hamish : Right.

  Campbell : He'll move.

  Morrison : Come on, Hamish!

  Campbell : Come on there, boy!

  [Hamish throws the stone but misses the unflinching Wallace] 

  Campbell : [pointing at Wallace]  Well done!

  [Wallace throws his stone hitting Hamish's head] 

  Hamish : Ah!

  Crowd : Oooh!

  Campbell : Fine display, young Wallace!

• Hamish : There's somebody coming.

  Campbell : MacGregors from the next clan.

  MacGregor : We heard about what was happenin' and don't want you "Amadans" thinkin' you can have your fun without us.

  William Wallace : Go home. Some of us are in this; can't help that, now. But you can help yourselves. Go home.

  MacGregor : We'll have no homes left when the English garrison from the castle comes through and burns us out. And they will!

  [Wallace motions for the MacGregors to join them] 

• Campbell : [after his wound is cauterized]  That'll wake you up in the mornin', boy!

• William Wallace : Ya know, eventually, Longshanks will send his whole Northern Army against us.

  Campbell : Heavy cavalry. Dominant horse. Shake the very ground.

  William Wallace : My uncle Argyle used to talk about it. No army has ever stood up to a charge of heavy horse.
