Subotai: Food. Food. I have not eaten for days.
Conan: And who says you will?
King Osric: What daring! What outrageousness! What insolence! What arrogance... I salute you.
Conan's Father: The secret of steel has always carried with it a mystery. You must learn its riddle, Conan. You must learn its discipline. For no-one, no-one in this world can you trust. Not men, not women, not beasts. [Pointing to his sword] This you can trust.
The Wizard: Ooooh... Once great men lived here... giants... gods... once, but long ago. It is here that I met my master. It was no accident, nor it is mere chance that I am the teller of his tale.
The Wizard: Wealth can be wonderful, but you know, success can test one's mettle as surely as the strongest adversary.
The Wizard: It has been surmised, that perhaps, my lord had become like a wild animal that had been kept too long. Perhaps, but whatever... freedom... so long an unremembered dream, was his.
Valeria: Let's take what we have while we live. I have never had so much as now. All my life I've been alone. Many times I've faced my death with no-one to know. I would look into the huts and the tents of others in the coldest dark and I would see figures holding each other in the night. And I always passed by. You and I, we have warmth. That's so hard to find in this world. Please. Let someone else pass by in the night. Let us take the world by the throat and make it give us what we desire.
Conan: Crom, I have never prayed to you before. I have no tongue for it. No one, not even you, will remember if we were good men or bad. Why we fought, or why we died. All that matters is that two stood against many. That's what's important! Valor pleases you, Crom... so grant me one request. Grant me revenge! And if you do not listen, then to hell with you.
Subotai: He is Conan, Cimmerian, he won't cry, so I cry for him.
Priestess: What do you see?
Conan: Um... infinity.
Valeria: All my life I've been alone. Many times I've faced death with no-one to know. I would look into the huts and the tents of others in the coldest dark and I would see figures holding each other in the night. But I always passed by.
Mongol General: Hao! Dai ye! We won again! This is good, but what is best in life?
Mongol: The open steppe, fleet horse, falcons at your wrist, and the wind in your hair.
Mongol General: Wrong! Conan! What is best in life?
Conan: To crush your enemies. See them driven before you. And to hear the lamentations of their women.
Mongol General: That is good! That is good.
Mongol General: What is best in life?
Conan: To crush your enemies, to see them driven before you, and to hear the lamentations of their women.
Valeria: All the gods, they cannot sever us. If I were dead and you were still fighting for life, I'd come back from the darkness. Back from the pit of hell to fight at your side.
Thulsa Doom: Infidel Defilers. They shall all drown in lakes of blood.
Answer: Like an Army Drill Sargent, he was berating them for not doing it better. Toughening them to become the best they could be.
Also, the other student laughs at Conan's punishment, so the teacher kicks him to teach him some humility.
