Quotes:

[Seducing Caesar]::Cleopatra: My breasts are full of love and life. My hips are round and well apart. Such women, they say, have sons.

Cleopatra: You come before me as a suppliant.::Antony: If you choose to regard me as such.::Cleopatra: You will therefore assume the position of a suppliant before this throne. You will kneel.::Antony: I will *what*?::Cleopatra: On-your-knees!::Antony: You dare ask the Proconsul of the Roman Empire?::Cleopatra: I *asked* it of Julius Caesar. I *demand* it of you!

Antony: Queens. Queens. Strip them naked as any other woman, they are no longer queens.::Rufio: It is also difficult to tell the rank of a naked general. Generals without armies are naked indeed.

Cleopatra: The way to prevent war is to be ready for it!::Sosigenes: Have 300 warships ever been built for war without war?

Agrippa: Well versed in the natural sciences and mathematics. She speaks seven languages proficiently. Were she not a woman one would consider her to be an intellectual.

Marc Antony: Why are you not dead? Why do you live? How do you live? Why do you not lie at the deepest hole of the sea, bloodless, and bloated, and at peace with honorable death?

Marc Antony: Your tongue is old, but sharp, Cicero. Be careful how you wag it. One day it will cut off your head.

Marc Antony: [his last words] A kiss... to take my breath away...

Julius Caesar: Ah, yes. I seem to recall some mention of an obsession you have about your divinity... Isis, isn't it?::Cleopatra: I shall have to insist that you mind what you say. I AM Isis. I am worshipped by millions who believe it. You are not to confuse what I am with the so-called divine origin which every Roman general seems to acquire together with his shield. It was, uh, Venus you chose to be descended from, wasn't it?

Cleopatra: How DARE you and the rest of your barbarians set fire to my library? Play conqueror all you want, Mighty Caesar! Rape, murder, pillage thousands, even millions of human beings! But neither you nor any other barbarian has the right to destroy one human thought!
