"Aye, fight and you may die, run, and you'll live... at least a while. And dying in your beds, many years from now, would you be willin' to trade all of that from this day to that, for one chance, just one chance, to come back here and tell our enemies that they may take away our lives, but they'll never take our freeeedoooomm. "

——Brave Heart

是啊,战斗,你们也许会死。逃跑,你们就会活下去。至少能活一阵子。但是你们愿不愿意用从今往后的全部岁月去换取一个机会,只有一个机会,回到这里告诉我们的敌人,他们也许能夺走我们的生命,但是,他们永远夺不走——我们的自由!

  ——《勇敢的心》
