Quotes2

  • John 'Johnny' Zinga: I am no stranger. I am of your race, your blood, and even more than that, I am your King.
  • Native Leader: Our King? You think you are a King because you come to us dressed up in white man's clothes.
  • Ruth Zinga: But, he brings you knowledge from the great countries over the sea. Its not for himself that he wants to be King. For all his life, his face has been turned towards this island. There's so much he wants to do for you.
  • Native Leader: So, we shall see what he can do for us.
  • Native Leader: If he is Zinga, he is in deed a King.
  • John 'Johnny' Zinga: But, I am Zinga!
  • Native Leader: That I believe. Yet, the heart of Mandingo is heavy, because, you have come.
  • John 'Johnny' Zinga: Should not a King come to bring help to his people?
  • Native Leader: You are a stranger to them. Although you are of our color, you are not of us. A lion whose not bred in the jungle, does not know the jungle well.
  • John 'Johnny' Zinga: You speak truly. But, I have more than jungle ways to bring to you. I have learned much from the people across the sea. Their wisdom, their government, their medicine.
