Hercules, Samson & Ulysses (1963) Poster

Aldo Giuffrè: Saran of Gaza

Quotes 

  • Saran of Gaza : No one knows who Samson is. No one has ever seen him. He's been away. I don't know where. But we've heard of his fearful deeds. And we are certain that he exists.

    Delilah, Philistine Queen : My lord, Delilah exists too. I'll know how to receive Samson and how to tame him.

  • Saran of Gaza : Samson is on his way here with the Danites.

    Delilah, Philistine Queen : So much the better. You won't have to look for him anymore.

    Saran of Gaza : You don't understand. Now he is hunting for me. He's openly challenging me. He'll stop at nothing!

    Delilah, Philistine Queen : Ah. Can't the Philistine king protect and defend himself?

    Saran of Gaza : Do you think it easy to fight against someone who believes he was sent here by his god?

  • Saran of Gaza : And why should I have to defend myself? This land is mine by right of conquest. Those men are my subjects. Every one of them owes me obedience.

    Delilah, Philistine Queen : And tribute. And slaves. That's why they love you so well, my lord.

  • Saran of Gaza : Samson has sworn that... I will be murdered.

    Delilah, Philistine Queen : Where is your courage? You must set an example for the rest. You know, like you did in that village - the Danites that had no defense.

  • Delilah, Philistine Queen : You see? Hercules was the only man who could catch Samson in the whole country. I knew he could do it. And do you know what made it possible?

    Saran of Gaza : It was possible because you came between them.

  • Delilah, Philistine Queen : Why have they stopped?

    Saran of Gaza : A soldier has to be encouraged. You'll see. Just watch how I inspire them.

    [Saran signals his archers to fire upon the stationary soldiers] 

  • Saran of Gaza : Tonight, we'll celebrate the death of Samson. And that of his friend, the Greek.
