- Sir Gawain: [his horse backs against him ramming him against the stable wall] Hold, you four-legged fool! Hold, I say!
- Prince Valiant: [gets it away] Gawain, are you hurt?
- Sir Gawain: [sinks to his knees with his arm to his torso; slowly] Only my pride, Valiant.
- King Arthur: A soldier who would put personal vendetta above the common goal is not only a threat to himself. He is a liability to the common battle.
- Driver: Not a man nor beast lost, Sir Gawain.
- Queen Guinevere: Then luck must indeed be with us.
- Driver: Luck, and the will of King Arthur.
- Arn: Cynan took your home, and your father's kingdom. You must hate him.
- Prince Valiant: With all my heart.
- Arn: His army is at Greystone. He may well be there.
- Prince Valiant: And if I find him, he may well die there.
- Sir Gawain: He is too young. Too volatile. Too reckless.
- Merlin: Indeed. And is he more reckless than a knight who would conceal a serious injury from his king as he is leading an army into battle?
- Prince Valiant: [praying] Give me strength.
- Merlin: You have the strength, Valiant.
- Prince Valiant: To fight, yes. But to lead an army, Merlin?
- Prince Valiant: Before I return to Camelot, Sir Gawain, I must go back to Thule. I must stop Cynan, and reclaim my father's kingdom.
- Sir Gawain: Yes, I understand. But such a battle cannot be fought single-handed. Prince Valiant is in need of soldiers. Is there any among you willing to follow him into battle against King Cynan?
- [everyone cheers assent]
- Sir Gawain: It looks as if you've got yourself an army, boy.
