TOBY STEPHENS as JAMES FLINT in BLACK SAILS (2014 - 2017) Season 1, Episode 1
There’s a war coming, Billy.
One ship isn’t a war.
One ship isn’t what’s coming. That man Hume, the captain of the Scarborough told you as much. When a king brands us pirates, he doesn’t mean to make us adversaries. He doesn’t mean to make us criminals. He means to make us monsters. For that’s the only way his God-fearing, taxpaying subjects can make sense of men who keep what is theirs and fear no one. When I say there’s a war coming, I don’t mean with the Scarborough. I don’t mean with King George or England. Civilization is coming and it means to exterminate us.
