12 Years a Slave (2013)
Michael Kenneth Williams: Robert
Quotes
-
Robert : I say we fight.
Solomon Northup : The crew is fairly small. If it were well planned, I believe they could be strong armed.
Clemens : Three can't stand against a whole crew. The rest here are niggers, born and bred slaves. Niggers ain't got the stomach for a fight, not a damn one.
Robert : All I know, we get where we travelling we'll wish we'd died trying.
Clemens : Survival is not about certain death, it is about keeping your head down.
Solomon Northup : Days ago I was with my family, in my home. Now you tell me all is lost. "Tell no one who I really am" if I want to survive. I don't want to survive, I want to live.
