The Scottish Highlands still roared with mournful winds, just as they did for millennia before. Freedom has always been a word that has a huge price to pay, so Wallace probably knew from the first step that he would die if he chose this path, the wind of freedom blowing through every stream and every hill. Every piece of land has the blood of Scots for freedom. Wallace was tortured to death on the execution platform, but his soul was poured into the sword with the wind. Until he died, there was only blood and freedom in his mouth.

Braveheart quotes

  • Longshanks: Not the archers. My scouts tell me their archers are miles away and no threat to us. Arrows cost money. Use up the Irish. The dead cost nothing.

  • Murron: You're going to teach me to read, then?

    William Wallace: Aye, if you'd like.

    Murron: Aye!

    William Wallace: In what language?

    Murron: Ah, you're showing off now.

    William Wallace: That's right. Are you impressed yet?

    Murron: No. Why? Should I be?

    William Wallace: Oui. Parce que chaque jour j'ai pensé à toi.

    [Yes. Because every single day I've thought about you]

    Murron: [hesitates, impressed despite herself, then smiles] Do that standing on your head and I'll be impressed.

    William Wallace: Well, my kilt will fly up, but I'll try.
