Louis XI, King of France:
The cathedrals are the handwriting of the past. The press is of our time - and I won't do anything to stop it, Frollo.
Frollo:
We must break the best and hang the principal. Between them they will destroy our old and holy order.
Louis XI, King of France:
I am not such a fool.
Frollo:
I for my part will protect France from these printed books as I will protect it from witches, sorcerers and gypsies - the foreign races over-running all of Europe.
