MARCUS: Will you accept this great honour that I have offered?
MAXIMUS: With all my heart, no.
MARCUS: Maximus, that is why it must be you.
MAXIMUS: But surely a prefect, a senator, somebody who knows the city, who understands her politics…
MARCUS: But you have not been corrupted by her politics.
MAXIMUS: And Commodus?
MARCUS: Commodus is not a moral man, you have known that since you were young. Commodus cannot rule. He must not rule. You are the son that I should have had. Commodus will accept my decision. He knows that you command the loyalty of the army.
