Quotes 

• Leroy : We have to stop him.

  Patrick Harper : You can't stop Captain Sharpe, sir. You can walk away from him or you can stand behind him, but don't ever try and get in his way.

• Berry : [attacking Sharpe]  This is going to hurt quite a bit, old boy.

  Patrick Harper : [comes up behind him]  So will this, old boy.

  [kills Berry] 

• Richard Sharpe : [Lerory has just told Sharpe Simmerson's order not to "dawdle in the rear"]  Right, lads... if we can't dawdle in the rear, we may as well dawdle in the front.

  Harper : Took the words right out of me mouth, sir.

• Harper : [on the South Essex's musketry]  Send them to Ireland. We'd be free in a week.

• Patrick Harper : [to the men, who are all drunk]  Bless all here! - Right, lads! Fall in! We've a bit of a bridge to blow up!

• Leroy : [about Sharpe]  We have to stop him!

  Patrick Harper : You can't stop Captain Sharpe, sir! You can walk away from him, or you can stand behind him. But don't ever try to get in his way!

• Richard Sharpe : [referring to the Chosen Men]  Where the blazes are they, Harper?

  Patrick Harper : They're hornin', sir. I told them once, I told them a thousand times, not to go hornin'. Why, says I, if you're desperate to hold on to something, hold a bottle! - It's not the best advice, sir...

  Richard Sharpe : You bloody old bishop! What's it matter if they're pissed or poxed, as long as they can fight!
