Quotes32

  • Allan Quatermain: Now, would you like to learn to shoot?
  • Tom Sawyer: I can already.
  • Allan Quatermain: Oh, I saw. Very American. Fire enough bullets and hope to hit the target.
  • [Mina jumps and gasps like something just grabbed her behind]
  • Rodney Skinner (The Invisible Man): I've been waiting all week to do that.
  • Allan Quatermain: Get a grip, man.
  • Rodney Skinner (The Invisible Man): Well, I thought I just did.
  • [Mina slaps him]
  • Rodney Skinner (The Invisible Man): Oooh, Mina...
  • Captain Nemo: Report.
  • Rodney Skinner (The Invisible Man): Well, hello to you, too. And need I remind you, I am naked in the snow. I can't feel any of my extremities. And I mean... any of them.
  • Allan Quatermain: If you can't do it with one bullet, don't do it at all.
  • Allan Quatermain: Automatic rifles. Who in God's name has automatic rifles?
  • Elderly Hunter: Dashed unsporting. Probably Belgian.
  • Rodney Skinner (The Invisible Man): So, how did M get you?
  • Allan Quatermain: None of your business.
  • Mina Harker: You're a little testy, Mr. Q.
  • Allan Quatermain: Mrs. Harker, I doubt if you measure danger the way I do.
  • Mina Harker: And I imagine you with quite the library, Mr. Quatermain. All those books you must have read merely by looking at their covers.
  • Allan Quatermain: I've had women along on past exploits, and found them to be, at best, a distraction.
  • Mina Harker: Do I distract you?
  • Allan Quatermain: My dear girl, I've buried two wives and many lovers... and I'm in no mood for more of either.
  • Rodney Skinner (The Invisible Man): You can send 'em my way.
  • Allan Quatermain: Skinner, shut up.
  • M: They've discovered these attacks are all the work of one man who calls himself the Phantom
  • Allan Quatermain: Very operatic. And what's in it for him?
  • M: Profit.
  • Allan Quatermain: [sniffs air] He's afraid.
  • Tom Sawyer: [sniffs air] I don't smell anything.
  • Allan Quartermain: Well, we were the faster, but now we're the tortoise to his hare.
  • Dr. Henry Jekyll: So, we're done?
  • Tom Sawyer: No, we're alive. If M has any idea to the contrary, that gives us an edge.
  • Captain Nemo: The sea is vast, he could be anywhere.
  • Tom Sawyer: Yeah, well, I'm an optimist, now maybe that's a crime to you twisted so-and-so's but it keeps me from going crazy.
  • Mina Harker: Your optimism's out of place.
  • Tom Sawyer: You're wrong! Because we'll get out, man... at least, I will. That other agent I told you about... was my childhood friend. We were agents together until the Fantom shot him dead. Now you can be done, but I am not. I will avenge his death.
  • Dr. Henry Jekyll: It's not about any one of us, Tom, it's bigger than that.
  • Tom Sawyer: Yes, it is, Jekyll! The fate for the world is in our hands... the world! So M tricked you, he brought you all together and you walked straight into his trap. But the way that I see it, that's the part he did wrong... He brought you together.
  • Dr. Henry Jekyll: He has a point.
  • Allan Quartermain: And the boy becomes a man... perhaps a leader of men.
  • Mina Harker: And Women.
  • Allan Quartermain: Chilao!
  • [a target is slung into the ocean. Sawyer hoists the elephant gun]
  • Allan Quartermain: Aim.
  • Tom Sawyer: That's easy.
  • Allan Quartermain: Adjust for wind and target movement.
  • Tom Sawyer: That's easy, too.
  • Allan Quartermain: Here's the part that's not. You have to feel the shot. Take your time with it. You have all the time you need. All the time in the world.
  • [Allan aims his elephant gun at a fleeing assassin]
  • Sanderson Reed: But he's so far away.
  • [Allan lowers the gun with a grunt of frustration]
  • Sanderson Reed: Yes, I thought he was.
  • [Allan puts on a pair of glasses]
  • Allan Quartermain: God, I hate getting old.
  • [He aims the rifle and fires. In the far distance, the assassin goes down. Reed gapes]
  • [to Tom Sawyer]
  • Allan Quatermain: May this new century be yours, son, as the old one was mine.
  • Allan Quatermain: [being lead down a staircase that doesn't seem to end] Where are we going? Australia?
  • Allan Quartermain: Jekyll, come on! We'll need Hyde!
  • Dr. Henry Jekyll: No! Hyde will never use me again.
  • Dorian Gray: Then what good are you?
  • Sanderson Reed: Where is your sense of patriotism?
  • Allan Quatermain: [stands up with a drink] God save the Queen.
  • [the other patrons of the club mutter an apathetic return to the toast]
  • Nigel: God save her.
  • Allan Quatermain: [to Reed] That's about as patriotic as it gets around here.
  • Sanderson Reed: They're indestructible.
  • Allan Quatermain: No, just armor-plated.
  • M: I hope I've got your fire when I'm your age.
  • Allan Quatermain: You will not live beyond today. That I promise you.
  • Allan Quartermain: [after the exploration pod has been stolen] We can track it.
  • Captain Nemo: Track it? I intend to catch it!
  • Rodney Skinner (The Invisible Man): And they'll provide an antidote... well, that's if I'm a good boy.
  • Allan Quatermain: And are you a good boy?
  • Rodney Skinner (The Invisible Man): I guess you'll find out, won't you?
  • Sanderson Reed: There is great unrest. Countries set at each other's throats, baying for blood. It's a powder-keg. The trouble of which I speak could set a match to the whole thing: War.
  • Allan Quatermain: Wi-With whom, exactly?
  • Sanderson Reed: Everyone. A world war.
  • Allan Quatermain: That notion makes you sweat?
  • Sanderson Reed: Heavens, man. Doesn't it you?
  • Allan Quatermain: This is Africa, dear boy. Sweating is what we do.
  • Allan Quartermain: The Phantom is M. And the hunt is still on.
  • Dr. Henry Jekyll: What are you talking about?
  • Allan Quartermain: The Phantom is M. The same man who recruited us.
  • Dr. Henry Jekyll: [trying to examine Allan's wound] Let me see that.
  • [he is shrugged off]
  • Captain Nemo: But how?
  • Allan Quartermain: We'll get our answers. Where are the others?
  • Mina Harker: [entering] Dorian's missing in action. And Mr. Skinner must have fled when he realized we knew.
  • Allan Quartermain: [concerned] Sawyer?
  • Tom Sawyer: [entering with a bloody lip] He'll live to fight another day.
  • Mina Harker: [advances towards Tom, he draws back] Don't worry, I've had my fill of throats for this evening.
