Harry Hart Monologues

I’m a Catholic whore, currently enjoying congress out of wedlock with my black Jewish boyfriend who works at a military abortion clinic. So, hail Satan, and have a lovely afternoon, madam.

There is nothing noble in being superior to your fellow man; true nobility is being superior to your former self.

“Manners maketh man.” Do you know what that means? Then let me teach you a lesson.

She didn’t drown. She works in our tech department in Berlin. She’s fine. Limits must be tested. A Kingsman only condones the risking of one life to save another.

I see a young man with potential. A young man who is loyal. Who can do as he is asked, and who wants to do something good with his life. Did you see the film ‘Trading Places’?

Since 1849, Kingsman Tailors have clothed the world’s most powerful individuals. In 1919, a great number of them had lost their heirs to World War I. That meant a lot of money going uninherited. And a lot of powerful men with the desire to preserve peace and protect life. Our founders realized that they could channel that wealth and influence for the greater good. And so began our adventure. An independent international intelligence agency operating at the highest level of discretion. Without the politics and bureaucracy that undermine the intelligence of government-run spy organisations. A suit is the modern gentleman’s armour. And the Kingsman agents are the new knights.

These, you’re familiar with. And this is our standard issue pistol. It’s quite unique. As you all see it, it also fires a shotgun cartridge for use in messy close-range situations. How do they feel?

Um, listen, boys. I’ve had a rather emotional day, so whatever your beef with Eggsy is – and I’m sure it’s well founded – I’d appreciate it enormously if you could just leave us in peace, until I can finish this lovely pint of Guinness.

The point is, Eggsy, nobody thanked me for any of them. Front page news and all these occasions are celebrity nonsense. Because it’s the nature of Kingsman that our achievements remain secret. A gentleman’s name should appear in the newspaper only three times: When he’s born, when he marries, and when he dies. And we are, first and foremost, gentlemen.

I sometimes envy the blissful ignorance of those less well-versed in their… ‘shit’. As Professor Arnold always said: ‘Humankind is the only virus cursed to live with the horrifying knowledge of its host’s fragile mortality.’

Seventeen years and still evolving with the times remains an entirely foreign concept to you. You don’t remind me that I wouldn’t be here if it weren’t for that young man. He was as much Kingsman material as any of them. More so.

The day your father died, I missed something. And if it weren’t for his courage, my mistake would have cost the lives of every man present. So I owe him. Your father was a brave man. A good man. And having read your files, I’d think he’d be bitterly disappointed in the choices you’ve made.

Doesn’t explain why you gave up your hobbies. First prize, regional under tens’ gymnastics, two years in a row. Your coach had you pegged as Olympic team material.

Now, I’ve had a lot of fun with this. One of our finest examples of chemical engineering. Poison. Harmless when ingested. But at a time, convenient to you…

I very much regret that your husband’s bravery can’t be publicly celebrated. I hope you understand that.

I’m so sorry I can’t say more. I would like to present to you this medal of valour. If you look closely on the back, there’s a number. And as a more concrete gesture of gratitude, we’d like to offer you a… Let’s call it a favour. The nature of it is your choice. Just tell the operator: ‘Oxfords, not Brogues.’ And then they’ll know it’s you.
