Close but no cigar. Here's the perfect version:

"Wrong! Conan, what is best in life?"

"To crush your enemies, see them driven before you, and to hear the lamentation of their women."

"That is good!"

:notworthy

As spoken by Ahnuld, the line is pure poetry.

-RRH-

But IIRC, this did not appear in any of the Robert E. Howard stories, but only in the movie.

This makes it non-canon Conan.

While I agree with you on REH canon Conan, the movie Conan the Barbarian still has its charms.

Now for authentic Conan you need something like this:

"If you'd said that to one of my wilder brothers, you'd have found yourself with a split head. But I've lived among you civilized men long enough to understand your ignorance and lack of common courtesy - the churlishness that demands his business of a man who appears at your door out of a thousand-mile wilderness."

-Robert E. Howard, "Treasures of Tranicos"
