Everybody stop!
Shrek: Artie?
Who really thinks we need to settle things this way? You’re telling me you just want to be Villains your whole lives?
Captain Hook: But we are Villains. It’s the only thing we know.
Didn’t you ever wish you could be something else? Steve: Well, it’s easy for you to say. You’re not some evil enchanted tree.
Prince Charming: You morons. Don’t listen to him. ATTACK THEM-
Ed: What Steve’s trying to say here is that it’s hard to come by honest work when the whole world’s against you.
Steve: 2 Right, thanks Ed.
I'm not a talking tree. But, you know, a good friend of mine once told me..., that just because people treat you like a villain..., or an ogre..., or just some loser..., it doesn't mean you are one. The thing that matters most...,is what you think of yourself. If there is something you really want..., or someone you really want to be..., then the only person standing in your way... is you
Rumpelstiltskin: Me?
OTHER PIRATES: Get 'im lads.
No, no, no! What I mean is: Each of you is standing in your own way.
Fairytale Villains: Oooooooh.
Headless Horseman: (Sniffs) I’ve always wanted to play the flute.
Evill Queen: I`d like to open up a spa in France.
Captain Hook: I grow daffodils, And they’re beautiful.

~ Arthur's speech to the fairy tale villains, causing them to reform.

Arthur Pendragon, mostly known as "Artie" by Shrek, is the deuteragonist of Shrek the Third. He is Princess Fiona's cousin. These aspects are emphasized when Shrek announces to him that he is the next King of Far Far Away, and Artie begins to panic, believing that he is unsuitable for the job. However, Artie is noble and kind-hearted, and in the end, he courageously accepts the responsibilities of being the new King of Far Far Away.

He is voiced by Justin Timberlake.
