Anjelica Huston: Vivianne

Quotes 

• Viviane : No man or woman can live another's fate.

• [Arthur is trapped in a burning house during a Saxon seige] 

  Arthur : I call on the powers of Heaven and Earth, aid me now! I call upon the God of Heaven, and the Goddess of the Earth, help me now!

  Viviane : You call upon the God, and the Goddess? It is the Goddess who answers.

• Viviane : Morgause thinks of nothing and no-one but herself.

  Morgaine : Your motives may be nobler than hers, but you still move us around like pieces on a game board. What has my mother given up for your Avalon? My father died at Uther's hands because of you. My poor innocent brother Arthur, who was a baby on my lap, and loved me as no other! And I loved him! Look what you've done to us. You've twisted our love, and turned it into shame, all for the sake of Avalon! No! I will not kill the child within me, but I will not let you take him to Avalon! I will not let you twist and bend him to your will!

  Viviane : I can train him to be the greatest ruler Britain has ever seen.

  Morgaine : He will never set foot in Avalon, Viviane! He will not be one of your pawns, and nor will I!

  Viviane : You have sworn to obey the Goddess through me!

  Morgaine : My vows were to her, not to you. I renounce you! Do you hear me? I will never set foot in Avalon again!

• Igraine : But I'm married to the Duke of Cornwall, I've borne him a child! I will not betray him! I gave him my vows!

  Viviane : You gave them first to Avalon.
