Gladiator (2000) quotes

Juba : Can they hear you?
Maximus : Who?
Juba : Your family. In the afterlife.
Maximus : Oh yes.
Juba : What do you say to them?
Maximus : To my son - I tell him I will see him again soon. To keep his heels down while riding his horse. To my wife... that is not your business.

Maximus

Ancestors, I ask you for your guidance. Blessed mother, come to me with the Gods' desire for my future. Blessed father, watch over my wife and son with a ready sword. Whisper to them that I live only to hold them again, for all else is dust and air. Ancestors, I honor you and will try to live with the dignity that you have taught me.

Maximus

Please be quiet, brother! Your constant scheming gives me even more of a headache!
