Pierfrancesco Favino: Niccolò Polo

Quotes 

• Niccolò Polo : Marco, listen to me. Despite your dress and visage, you are not one of them. You never will be. You get involved with them, you damage us. You damage the family business.

• Niccolò Polo : [on their knees]  We are still new to the ways of your kingdom.

  Yusuf : Value is the first thing you seek. Risk, the second. The silk worm is sacred, more valuable than gems and gold, Master Polo. Its theft is punishable by death.

  Niccolò Polo : Please, we did not know...

  Kublai Khan : Enough! What is their origin?

  Niccolò Polo : They were not procured by us. A man in our caravan acquired them.

  Kublai Khan : Where is this man now?

  Maffeo Polo : He did not survive the journey, Lord Khan.

  Kublai Khan : And I'm quite confident neither shall you.
