Becket (1964) - Peter Glenville


King Henry II: So what in most people is morality, in you it's just an exercise in... what's the word?

Thomas a Becket: Aesthetics.

King Henry II: Yes, that's the word. Always "aesthetics."


King Henry II: I'm suddenly very intelligent. It probably comes from making love to that French girl last night.


Until the day of his death, no man can be sure of his courage.

Saintliness is also a temptation.
