La Hire : Why are you crying?
Joan of Arc : Because they're dead. Horribly dead. And it was I who killed them.
La Hire : Killed who?
Joan of Arc : All these men. Ours, and the enemy's.
La Hire : Huh! Are you crying about the English?
Joan of Arc : I have no hatred for the English. I spoke bold and loud so that you would follow me. I thought victory would be beautiful, but it is an ugly, bloody thing.
La Hire : Why, there never was a more beautiful victory than this!
-
Joan of Arc : Don't swear, La Hire. But if you must, swear "by my staff".
La Hire : "By my staff!" What kind of an oath is that?
-
La Hire : She's one of two things - either a charlatan, or a fool.
Joan of Arc : As for the first, I can't answer, as I don't know what the word means. If I am a fool, God as least has not held it against me.
-
Joan of Arc : There must be no swearing in this army, among high or low.
