The Ten Commandments - Power Struggles in Love and Desire
Rameses:
I know you, my sweet. You're a sharp-clawed, treacherous little peacock. But you're food for the gods, and I'm going to have all of you.
Nefretiri:
None of me. Did you think my kiss was a promise of what you'll have? No, my pompous one, it was to let you know what you will not have. I could never love you.
Rameses: [He leaves; Nefretiri wipes her lips in disgust]
Does that matter? You will be my wife. You will come to me whenever I call you. And I will enjoy that very much. Whether you enjoy it or not is your own affair. But I think you will.

None that you would dare take, my brother.

The temple granaries are full.

Bring the push-pole men and some women with baskets.

I will...great prince.

I warn you, Moses, the temple grain belongs to the gods.

Seti:
Would you please your Pharaoh, Moses?
Moses:
Your wish is my will.
Seti:
Then you build the city
Rameses: [to Moses]
A wise decision. Noble task.
Seti:
Rameses, do you believe this slave deliverer is a myth?
Rameses:
What I believe is of no account. What matters is the slaves believe in him.
Seti:
Of course, of course. Then you, too, shall go to Goshen. Learn if this deliverer be a myth or a man. If a myth, bring him to me in a bottle. If a man, bring him to me in chains.
Rameses:
So let it be written, so let it be done.
