"And now, his monarch's sweating face thrust into his, he remembers something his father told him: if you burn your hand, Tom, raise your hands and cross your wrists before you, and hold them so till you get to the water or the salve: I don't know how it works, but it confuses the pain, and then if you utter a prayer at the same time, you might get off not too bad. He raises his palms. He crosses his wrists. Back you go, Henry. As confused by the gesture — as if almost relieved to be stopped—the king face away and so relieving him, Cromwell, of that bloodshot stare, of the indecent closeness of the popping blue whites of the king's eyes. He says, softly, 'God preserve you, Majesty. And now, will you excuse me?' (Mantel, H. 2012. Bring up the Bodies. 276-277)

MARK RYLANCE and DAMIAN LEWIS as THOMAS CROMWELL and KING HENRY VIII in WOLF HALL (2015-) | 1x05 "Crows"

Henry’s eyes are on his portrait of himself, massive, on the wall of the chamber. His [Cromwell] own eyes consult the image of his master. ‘What should I want with the Emperor, were he emperor of all the world? Your Majesty is the only prince. The mirror and the light of other kings.’

The Mirror and The Light by Hilary Mantel

nah this line "there's something about the idea of these guys being 1940s guys who weren't really allowed to talk about their feelings or admit that they like each other at all. They weren't allowed to." goes CRAZYYYYy

Actors talking about their understandings of Winters/Nixon relationship:

It's a great relationship. There isn't a lot of romance in Band of Brothers. We don't see a lot of ladies. But that is a romance of the sort. -- Damian Lewis, the Ross Owen Show (2011)

I really enjoy the scene where Damian and I are having this bromance at the end, and there's this awkwardness, like, are we going to see each other again? It's almost like inviting the girl to the prom, asking him to come work with my factory, you know what I mean. And there's something about the idea of these guys being 1940s guys who weren't really allowed to talk about their feelings or admit that they like each other at all. They weren't allowed to. --Ron Livingston, the Ross Owen Show (2017)

I think there was a lot of sibling, friend, rivalry. That's part of any deep and abiding love. --Ron Livingston, HBO Band of Brothers podcast (2022)

Nix is such beautifully played by Ron. This slightly cavalier, Ivy League, upper-class, roguish character, seems to have got through the war, somehow, with his humor intact. And as long as there's a bottle not too far away you figure he can get through the day. And Dick is completely straight next to him. Opposites attracted. -- Damian Lewis, HBO Band of Brothers podcast (2022)
