The correct answer to this open question is the following.

The man that speaks those words is Sir Thomas More. Those words appear in <em>"A Man for All Seasons."</em>

English writer Robert Bolt wrote the play "A Man for All Seasons" in 1954. It first appeared as a version to the radio, and later for television. The play debuted in the Globe Theater in London, in 1960. It is based on the life of Sir Thomas More (1478-1535) an English philosopher and humanist of the Renaissance that opposed to the theology of Martin Luther and Reformation. He was sentenced to death after he rejected to take the Supremacy Oath required to swear allegiance to the Church of England.
