“- Queen Elizabeth: You conceive it to be part of your mission to assault and loot the ship of an ambassador to the court? Captain Thorpe, do you imagine that we are at war with Spain?
- Geoffrey Thorpe: Your Grace, Spain is at war with the world.”

Flora Robson - Queen Elizabeth
Errol Flynn - Geoffrey Thorpe

Flora Robson - Queen Elizabeth

“The riches of the New World are limitless, and the New World is ours - with our ships carrying the Spanish flag on seven seas, our armies sweeping over Africa, the Near East, and the Far West; invincible everywhere... but on our own doorstep. Only northern Europe holds out against us.”
Montagu Love - King Phillip II

“You Spanish have a gift for hospitality when your guests are in chains.”
Errol Flynn - Geoffrey Thorpe

“Someday I'll come back to you with a whole trunkful of clippings, and when you marry me, you'll marry the first torero of Spain, not the second or third, but the first, the greatest!”

Tyrone Power - Juan
