NATALIE DORMER as ANNE BOLEYN THE TUDORS 1.10 The Death of Wolsey

Charles Brandon in The Tudors, 2.04- The Act of Succession.

"Don't be childish." We're children.

Good Christian people, […] I am come hither to die, for according to the law, and by the law I am judged to die, and therefore I will speak nothing against it. I am come hither to accuse no man, nor to speak anything of that, whereof I am accused and condemned to die, but I pray God save the king and send him long to reign over you, for a gentler nor a more merciful prince was there never: and to me he was ever a good, a gentle and sovereign lord. And if any person will meddle of my cause, I require them to judge the best. And thus I take my leave of the world and of you all, and I heartily desire you all to pray for me. O Lord have mercy on me, to God I commend my soul. - Foxe, John (1838). Cattley, S. R. (ed.). The Acts and Monuments of John Foxe. Vol. V.

Anne Boleyn in The Tudors (2007-2010)

[Chapuys] thought that she [Katharine of Aragon] had been excessively compassionate. Later on in his life he described her as ‘the most virtuous woman I have ever known and the highest hearted, but too quick to trust that others were like herself, and too slow to do a little ill that much good might come of it.’ Excerpt from Catherine of Aragon: Henry's Spanish Queen by Giles Tremlett, published 2010.
