Dennis: [ interrupting] Listen, strange women lyin' in ponds distributin' swords is no basis for a system of government. Supreme executive power derives from a mandate from the masses, not from some farcical aquatic ceremony.
Dennis: Oh, but you can't expect to wield supreme executive power just because some watery tart threw a sword at you.
Dennis: Oh but if I went 'round sayin' I was Emperor, just because some moistened bint lobbed a scimitar at me, they'd put me away.

you missed the best part of this exchange
Arthur: Shut up! Will you shut up?!
Dennis: Ah, now we see the violence inherent in the system!
Arthur:
Shut up!
Dennis: Oh! Come and see the violence inherent in the system!
Help! Help! I'm being repressed!
Arthur: Bloody peasant!
Dennis: Oh, what a giveaway! Did you hear that? Did you hear that, eh? That's what I'm on about! Did you see him repressing me? You saw him, Didn't you?
