Marcel Herrand: Louis XV

Quotes 

  • Louis XV : You love Fanfare? Then thank me. My whims enable you to show the greatest proof of your love, by betraying for his sake the loyalty you have sworn him. It's his pardon you will pay for with the pleasures we shall share. And if your conduct satisfies me, I shall cover you with riches, and he will owe you his fortune.

    Adeline La Franchise : Your Majesty has many other girls eager to use their beauty.

    Louis XV : Your resistance stirs me more than their coquettishness. I order you to love me readily.

    Adeline La Franchise : No, Sire, don't touch me! I beg you!

  • Louis XV : Tell me, child, do you love your king?

    Adeline La Franchise : As much as I respect him, Sire.

    Louis XV : Naturally, you owe him obedience. You wouldn't wish to displease him?

    Adeline La Franchise : I shouldn't dream of it, Sire.

    Louis XV : So you would please him by obeying him? Come here, my pure beauty, natural grace, charming object. Come here. Look at me, and let us forget who we are. Please me as you wish to please me, quite simply. Sit down. Give me your pretty little hand.

    Adeline La Franchise : Thank you, but, my heart belongs to Fanfare.

    Louis XV : Who asks for your heart? All I ask of you is a little pleasure.

  • [last lines] 

    Louis XV : Joy, happiness and prosperity.
