Keith David: Goliath

Quotes 

• Goliath : Tell me Gabriel, has Avalon been peaceful since we last journeyed forth?

  Gabriel : Yes. Peaceful and quiet. Truthfully a small adventure now and then would be nice.

  Angela : Join us on the skiff, my brother. I guarantee you won't be bored.

• Goliath : We would perhaps better understand your pronouncements, if we knew who you are.

  Oberon : We are Oberon. Lord of the Third Race. Ruler of Avalon. This lady is Titania, our once and future Queen. We have come to reclaim our own.

• Goliath : Lady Titania, our thanks.

  Oberon : You are wise to thank her while you may, gargoyle.

  Goliath : We have no desire to fight you, Oberon.

  Oberon : Do it or die where you stand!

  Angela : Not much of a choice.

  Gabriel : Better than none!

  Goliath : I agree!

  Oberon : Very well.

  Titania : You three shall match my lord Oberon. Avalon's Lord be thou enchained/Thy power to child's strength restrained/Til hunt be done and issue known/This contest won by craft alone.

• Gabriel : I don't like running away from a fight!

  Goliath : Consider it a strategic withdrawal. We must buy ourselves some time.

  Angela : Why? You heard the Queen. Oberon's no stronger than a child now.

  Goliath : As strong as any of Oberon's children now, Angela. Which is *more* than enough to give us trouble!

• Goliath : You two go on. I'll run no longer!

  Angela : Gargoyles stand together. That is our way!

• Goliath : You've proven your mastery over the terrain, but did Titania want the isle to defeat us or *you*?

  Oberon : We had hoped to spare you the humiliation of direct combat, but if that is the only way to satisfy you... Come on then.

• Oberon : [to Princess Katherine]  You could have obliterated us, and yet did not. Strange behavior for your breed. Such an example of generosity is worth rewarding. Stay then, with our blessing, all of you.

  [Walks to Goliath] 

  Oberon : And henceforth Goliath, you and your clan shall be immune to my arts and shall become the Honor Guard of Avalon from this day onward.

  Goliath : I thank you my Lord.

• Titania : You have nothing to fear from him now, Goliath. In Avalon, Oberon's word is law.

  Princess Katherine : Does that mean he's alway right?

  Titania : Not while he's married.

  Goliath : All's well that ends well then. But one thing puzzles me still, my Lady. Why did you aide us?

  Titania : To repay a favor rendered.

  Goliath : But we have never met before.
