Talk:Kingdom of Heaven (film)
I found this quote under the category Baldwin IV:
When I was sixteen I won a great victory. I felt in that moment that I should live to be one hundred, now I know I shall not see thirty. None of us know our end really, or what hand will guide us there. A King may move a man, a father may claim a son. That man can also move himself. And only then does that man truly begin his own game. Remember that howsoever you are played, or by whom, your soul is in your keeping alone. Even though those who presume to play you be kings or men of power. When you stand before God, you cannot say "but I was told by others to do thus" or that "virtue was not convenient at the time." This will not suffice. Remember that.
Though I don't remember some of the text in the quote I remember it like this:
When I was sixteen I won a great victory. I felt in that moment that I should live to be one hundred, now I know I shall not see thirty. None of us know our end really.A King may move a man, a father may claim a son, but remember that even when those who move you be Kings, or men of power, your soul is in your keeping alone. When you stand before God, you cannot say, 'But I was told by others to do thus.' Or that, 'Virtue was not convenient at the time.' This will not suffice. Remember that.
Anyways I think the first quote is definetly a good one but I don't remember Baldwin IV ever saying the quote in the first version before. Anyways, if I'm wrong please correct me but if I'm right I think we should change the quote.
Nevermind. I found out my version is from the theatrical version. The other from the Director's Cut.
