One Night with the King quotes
-
Queen Esther: [in her prayers] Obedient I have been. I walk before you with a loyal heart and now I stand in the hour of trouble precisely because of my obedience. I beseech you father. Let there be another way. Rise up a deliverer and let this pass... let this pass.

Queen Esther: [after being told of the King's intentions] And who is this honored man?
Haman, the Amelekite: A scribe. A Jewish scribe, who claims to have saved the King's life.
Queen Esther: I should think you would be honored by such a privilege given by the King.
Haman, the Amelekite: [seething] Honored? Prestige of Persian is at stake. What will it be said of your husband, the king that he commanded his highest prince to lead a Jew through the streets? A Jew, my lady!
Queen Esther: And how is a Jew any different than you or I?
Haman, the Amelekite: They are our enemy! They must be destroyed.
Queen Esther: They may your enemy, but not mine.
Haman, the Amelekite: The way you defend them, one might almost think...
Queen Esther: [challenging] One might think what, my prince?
Haman, the Amelekite: One might think that is all, my lady. One might think.
