Lucius "Hanno" Verus

edit
  • I remember that day. I never forgot it. The day that a slave could take an emperor.
  • Strength and honor.
  • Where we are, death is not. Where death is, we are not.
  • What does my past matter, when my future is only to die as a gladiator?
  • This is about survival! Survive!
  • [Referring to killer rhinos] All together, and when it charges, break for the wall.
  • I was owned. Now I will control an Empire.
  • I will not waste another generation of young men for their vanity.
  • [To fellow gladiators] Strength and honor! [They all raise their swords to him and repeat in unison]
  • Is this how Rome treats its heroes?!
  • A man does not become emperor by bloodline alone. It must be taken by force and kept by force! Are you such a man as this?

Emperor Geta

  • The gods have SPOKEN!

Macrinus

edit
  • You will be my instrument!
  • Do you hear that crowd? The greatest temple ever built. The Colosseum. Because this is what they believe in. Power.
  • That rage is your gift.
  • Rome will fall. I only need to give it a push.

Lucilla

edit
  • [Holding out a jewellery ring to Lucius] This ring belonged to Maximus. I now give it to you. What is the dream of Rome, if its people are not free?
