I think they were -
But I guess there's more.
Maximus
* Are you not entertained? Are you not entertained?! * My name is Maximus Decimus Meridius, Commander of the Armies of the North, General of the Felix Legions, loyal servant to the true emperor, Marcus Aurelius. Father to a murdered son, husband to a murdered wife. And I will have my vengeance, in this life or the next.
* My name is Gladiator.
* I knew a man once who said, "Death smiles at us all. All a man can do is smile back."Commodus
* Am I not merciful?!
Marcus Aurelius
* There was a dream that was Rome. You could only whisper it. Anything more than a whisper and it would vanish, it was so fragile.
Proximo
* Listen to me. Learn from me. I was not the best because I killed quickly. I was the best because the crowd loved me. Win the crowd and you will win your freedom.
Juba
* Now we are free.*pauses* I will see you again…but not yet...not yet.
Lucilla
* Is Rome worth one good man's life? We believed it once, make us believe it again. He was a soldier of Rome. Honor him.
* Today I saw a slave become more powerful than the Emperor of Rome.

Gladiator has to be my boyfriend's favorite movie and he knows all the lines by heart. A big fan of Russell Crowe. His absolute favorite line, "My name is Maximus Decimus Meridius, Commander of the Armies of the North, General of the Felix Legions, loyal servant to the true emperor, Marcus Aurelius. Father to a murdered son, husband to a murdered wife. And I will have my vengeance, in this life or the next."Again, great movie.

Gladiator is really a fantastic movie. Is Rome worth one good man's life? We believed it once, make us believe it again. He was a soldier of Rome. Honor him. * Today I saw a slave become more powerful than the Emperor of Rome.
These two dialogues i like the most.

my choice ....
Listen to me. Learn from me. I was not the best because I killed quickly. I was the best because the crowd loved me. Win the crowd and you will win your freedom.
