Quotes:
Red Sonja: No man may have me, unless he's beaten me in a fair fight.::Kalidor: So, the only man that can have you, is one who's trying to kill you. That's logic.::[Red Sonja goes and lies down. Kalidor picks up his sword and holds it to her throat]::Kalidor: If you yield only to a conqueror, then prepared to be conquered... Little Sonja...::Red Sonja: Don't be a fool, I don't want to kill you.::Kalidor: Try it.
Red Sonja: Falkon, may I give you a word of advice? Put him over your knee and beat some manners into him.
Brytag: This is my land. All that pass through pay me tribute.::Red Sonja: How much, Brytag?::Brytag: Who mentioned money? Tribute, I said. The tender kind all women pay to Brytag.::Red Sonja: (drawing her sword) Suppose I don't. Suppose, instead, I open up that great, fat belly of yours?
Brytag: I'm going to feed your eyes to the birds, red-hair!::Red Sonja: I don't need eyes to find you, I can smell you at a hundred paces!
Red Sonja: But why didn't you tell me who you were?::Kalidor: You didn't seem to want a man's help. But you needed it, so that's why I followed you. I had to be sure you reached the talisman.::Red Sonja: I see, I misunderstood. I thought you had another reason.::Kalidor: I did. (He kisses her.)
Red Sonja: What happened?::Falkon: What happened? Queen Gedren attacked us is what happened.::Red Sonja: Gedren? Queen Gedren?::Falkon: That's right. She knocked down half the city with her new weapon and demanded our surrender.::Prince Tarn: My army ran away. Do they want to live forever? I refused to surrender.::Falkon: So she knocked down the other half.
Prince Tarn: Why does she fight so hard? She doesn't want to win.
Ikol: [referring to the Killer of the Icthyan Caverns] My Queen, this pet of yours is difficult for the rest of us to control; there can be no guarantees that something won't... well, go wrong.::Queen Gedren: If anything does, YOU will be its next victim.
Prince Tarn: [upon finding the Great Pearl of the Icthyan Caverns] This could buy me an army, or even rebuild Habloc! Dig it out, Falkon!::Falkon: Your Highness, this pearl may BELONG to somebody.::Prince Tarn: It does! And he wants it NOW!
Kalidor: I know you're a brave girl, but danger is my TRADE.::Red Sonja: If danger is a trade, I'll learn it by myself.
