Rifleman Cooper : Sarge? Where are we off to, Sarge?
Patrick Harper : We're going to join up with a man called Sharpe, lads.

Nairn : So you believe in ghosts, do you sergeant?

La Marquesa : You saved my life.
Richard Sharpe : You tried to end mine.
La Marquesa : I've never met you.
Richard Sharpe : Well, do you hear that, Pat? She's never met me.
Patrick Harper : You're bleeding, sir. Don't move.
Richard Sharpe : What about my shameful suggestions?
La Marquesa : What?
Richard Sharpe : Oh, she's denying me now, Pat. After all we've been through.
Patrick Harper : I hear her, sir.
Richard Sharpe : You think she'd remember the man who got down on his knees, drunk mind you, and crawled on her floor begging Her Ladyship to sleep with her. Bugger!
Patrick Harper : I'd remember it.
Richard Sharpe : Aye! So would I. The man lost his honour because of the lady's lies. Stripped of his rank... hung on a rope.
La Marquesa : Who are you?
Richard Sharpe : You know who I am. My name is Sharpe.
