Maleficent (2014) - Quotes

The True Story of Maleficent Revealed

Narrator: So you see, the story is not quite as you were told, and I should know, for I was the one they called "Sleeping Beauty". In the end, my kingdom was united not by a hero or a villain, as legend had predicted, but by one who was both hero *and* villain. And her name was Maleficent.

An Unexpected Arrival at the Royal Gathering

Maleficent: [laughs quietly; laughs maliciously; she stares at a nervous King Stefan] Well, well. What a glittering assemblage, King Stefan. Royalty, nobility, the gentry, and... How quaint, even the rabble. I must say, I really felt quite distressed at not receiving an invitation.

Stefan: You're not welcome here.

Maleficent: [whimpers mockingly; laughs; turns as if about to leave] Oh. Oh dear! What an awkward situation.

Leila: You're not offended?

Maleficent: Why, no. And to show I bear no ill will, I, too, shall bestow a gift on the child.

Stefan: No! We don't want your gift!

Knotgrass: Stay away from the princess!

Thistletwit: Yes, stay away!

Maleficent: [begins to cast her spell] Listen well, all of you. The princess shall indeed grow in grace and beauty, beloved by all who meet her.

Leila: That's a lovely gift.

Stefan: Don't do this.

Maleficent: But... before the sun sets on her sixteenth birthday, she will prick her finger on the spindle of a spinning wheel, AND FALL INTO A SLEEP LIKE DEATH! A SLEEP FROM WHICH SHE WILL NEVER AWAKEN!

Stefan: Maleficent, please don't do this, I'm begging you.

Maleficent: [she motions for Stefan to kneel] I like you begging. Do it again.

Stefan: I beg you.

Maleficent: [she glares at Stefan; short pause] All right. The princess can be woken from her death sleep, but only by... ...True Love's Kiss. This curse will last till the end of time! No power on Earth can change it!

The Tale of Two Kingdoms

Narrator: Let us tell an old story anew, and we will see how well you know it. Once upon a time, there were two kingdoms that were the worst of neighbors. So vast was the discord between them that it was said only a great hero or a terrible villain might bring them together. In one kingdom lived folk like you and me, with a vain and greedy king to rule over them. They were forever discontent, and envious of the wealth and beauty of their neighbors. For in the other kingdom, the Moors, lived every manner of strange and wonderful creature. And they needed neither king nor queen, but trusted in one another. In a great tree on a great cliff in the Moors lived one such spirit. You might take her for a girl, but she was not just any girl. She was a fairy. And her name was Maleficent.

Regret and Loss in Maleficent's Heart

Maleficent: [before kissing Aurora to awaken her from her enchanted sleep] I will not ask your forgiveness because what I have done to you is unforgivable. I was so lost in hatred and revenge. Sweet Aurora, you stole what was left of my heart. And now I have lost you forever. I swear, no harm will come to you as long as I live. And not a day shall pass that I don't miss your smile.
