Clive Merrison: Darius

Quotes 

• Darius of the Medes : I admire your people Daniel.

  Daniel : Then why keep us all hostage Highness? Why keep us here?

  Darius of the Medes : [laughs]  Daniel! If I freed the Israelites, this whole empire would collapse. Let one tribe go free... and it's the end.

  Daniel : And yet you allow us to worship the one true God, who will one day destroy all earthly empires.

  Darius of the Medes : Worship what you want, I don't care. It's order I want.

• Chief Magus : [Daniel is praying]  No decree issued by the King can ever be revoked. That is the law of the Medes and the Persians.

  Darius of the Medes : [sighs]  Arrest him.
