Quotes 

• Count Balkovitch : I am here under a flag of truce.

  Prince Gregor : What do you want?

  Count Balkovitch : What would you say if I told you I have an offer for you?

  Prince Gregor : I would say beware of murderous tartars bearing gifts.

  Count Balkovitch : Caronia is torn apart. There could be peace if we desired it.

  Prince Gregor : [sarcastically]  Most interesting, Count Balkovitch, considering your past efforts of plunging our country into chaos. But tell me what you propose to achieve this peace.

  Count Balkovitch : [sighs]  Our houses are both old and honored.

  Prince Gregor : Yes.

  Count Balkovitch : So... Why should we fight when we can unite? If representatives of both our houses should merge into the palms of matrimony.

  Prince Gregor : You, for instance?

  Count Balkovitch : And Princess Lina.

  [Zaboff tries to attack Balkovitch] 

  Jim West : Steady, captain.

  Count Balkovitch : [looks at West]  So, we have a voice of reason among us.

  [turns back to Gregor] 

  Count Balkovitch : You refuse to negotiate?

  Prince Gregor : Your flag of truce is soiled. I suggest you leave at once.

  [Balkovitch and his men leave in a rage]
