Lancelot: I never meant to hurt you, my lord.
King Arthur: You leave me nothing! Nothing!
King Arthur: I have no pride left in me. What I do, now I do for my people and for Camelot. And may they forgive me. This is my last act as your king. Do not be afraid. All things change.

Trivia
////
..
Mel Gibson was attached to this project at one stage.
In a making-of feature in which Richard Gere was preparing for the first rescue of Gweneviere (Julia Ormond), Gere stated that this would be the last film in which he performed an action oriented role. So far, it has.
Former James Bond director Terence Young was supposed to direct this film but died during early pre-production. It would have reunited him with his James Bond actor Sean Connery after 30 years. Their last movie together was Thunderball (1965) in 1965.
