• Queen Elizabeth I : I may not be a lion, but I am a lion's cub, and I have a lion's heart.

• Queen Elizabeth I : This is the Lord's doing. It is marvelous in our eyes!

• Mary I : You look at me with the eyes of your mother. Who said of my mother, "She will be my death, or I hers." And when my mother lay dead, and they took her heart from her body, they found at the heart's centre a black and terrible core!

  Queen Elizabeth I : Madame, Madame, I beg you - let the past be buried.

  Mary I : No water would wash away the blackness of that thing that had stopped my mother's heart. And it came there by foul practices of witchcraft!

  Queen Elizabeth I : God forbid that should be true!
