Henry V Quotes

You end up with this succession of periods when everything was marvellous - from King Arthur to the medieval times, Ivanhoe, chivalry, Henry VIII, Merry England, the Blitz Picture Quote #1

Obviously I’ve had this fascination with aristocracy my whole life. Like, the kings and queens of 500 years ago... they’re like rock stars. If there was a ‘TMZ’ 500 years ago, it would be about, like, Henry VIII and Marie Antoinette and all those people Picture Quote #1

If you can sell that you’re the King of Scotland, or Henry V on a tiny stage in a studio theater somewhere, then you can probably sell that you’re a starship captain or a time traveler Picture Quote #1

There are a lot of parallels between the historical Henry VIII and Jonathan Rhys Meyers.

Now entertain conjecture of a time, When creeping murmur and the pouring dark Fill the wide vessel of the universe... Chorus Henry V Picture Quote #1
