Shaka Zulu (1986)

Simon Sabela: Dingiswayo

Quotes 

• Dingiswayo : When I spoke of that nation, I wanted the name Mtetwa to stand for peace not total war! I wanted my armies to bring subjugation not destruction!

  Shaka : To subdue another tribe, you must strike it once and for all. Total war, total subjugation to the paramount king and total destruction to anyone who raises even a whisper against him! Never leave an enemy behind or it will rise again to fly at your throat! There's no other way!

  Dingiswayo : Yes, Shaka there is! Faith!

  Shaka : IN WHAT!

  Dingiswayo : The human being. Reason. In each man's desire to believe in himself and his fellow man.

  Shaka : Zwide of the Ndwandwes is preparing an attack. His army's as large, if not larger than yours. He has heard of our battle tactics and has devised others which I fear is just as effective. He has only one wish, baba. To crush you and your paramountcy to oblivion. And believe me, baba, he won't with faith and reason. But if you say I abuse my freedom, I'll ask you to accept my resignation as commander of your regiments.
