Conrad: You can't keep me locked away as the world burns.
Duke of Oxford: Son, the truth is, the world is ruled by corruption and greed.
Conrad: We must do something.
Duke of Oxford: Certainly.
Duke of Oxford: Our enemies think we are gentlemen, but reputation is what people think of you. Character is what you are.
Duke of Oxford: We are the first independent intelligence agency. Refined but brutal, civilized but merciless.
Polly: Why is it that boys are always so messy?
Duke of Oxford: Real power is not found running off to war. Real power lies in understanding who it is you're truly fighting, and how they can be defeated.
The Shepherd: Let's end this as gentlemen! After all, manners maketh man.
Duke of Oxford: I know you want to fight, but there are other ways of doing your duty.
The Shepherd: My flock, this will not be the war of heroes. Nations will slaughter each other, while we get rich. This is going to be fun.
