Quotes 

• Duke of Sandringham : Damn that Randall! I must admit that shielding him from the consequences of his misdeeds sometimes feels like a full time occupation. And I *loathe* work.

• Duke of Sandringham : Do tell your wife, it wasn't my fault.

• Duke of Sandringham : [Referring to a duel with the MacDonalds]  This is an affair of honor. Shots will be exchanged, but I understand no one will be hurt.

  Murtagh Fraser : When the MacDonalds are involved, there's always a chance that blood will be spilled.

  Duke of Sandringham : Yes, I know the MacDonalds and MacKenzies are sworn enemies, but this is not a clan matter. I myself will be in the line of fire. All that I require from Jamie is that he appears as my second.

  [Approaches Jamie] 

  Duke of Sandringham : Alas, my servants are chosen for their beauty, not their belligerence.

  [Placing his hands on Jamie's arms] 

  Duke of Sandringham : You, of course, contain within you...

  [caressing Jamie's chin] 

  Duke of Sandringham : a sublime combination of the two.

• Duke of Sandringham : Anyone ever told you you have the most gorgeous neck? Holds your head so prettily. I'd hate to see them parted.
