Sharpe/Quotes

""I was a sergeant once. I was the best god-damned bloody sergeant in the god-damned bloody army.""

- Richard Sharpe

""Sharpe's a killer. Killed three French cavalrymen and saved Wellesley's life. Three seconds, slash, cut, thrust. And that's while he was still a Sergeant.""

- Major Hogan

"He offered Sharpe the ghost of a smile; an acknowledgement of how many battlefields the two men had shared across the years. A more perceptive man than Sharpe might have read some message in The Duke's seeking the companionship of a veteran soldier, but Sharpe merely felt his usual awkwardness when he was in the company of his old commanding officer."

- Sharpe's Waterloo

""Lovers lie to each other, and yet they still make love.""

- Sharpe to Theresa, at their first meeting.
