Quotes7

  • Allan Quartermaine: You know, O'Brien, there's only one kind of man that it's useless to argue with.
  • Patrick 'Patsy' O'Brien: And that is?
  • Allan Quartermaine: A fool!
  • Allan Quartermaine: Then it is agreed we leave tonight?
  • Sir Henry Curtis: Yes!
  • Umbopa: It is not agreed - you must stay!
  • Allan Quartermaine: I'm in charge here! I told you that before!
  • Umbopa: That was in your country. You are now in mine!
  • Patrick 'Patsy' O'Brien: Well, you never know what you can do 'til you try.
  • Allan Quartermaine: While you're trying, your poor sister's peacefully passing away in Kilkenny.
  • Kathleen 'Kathy' O'Brien: Allan Quartermain, it was a lie about me father's sister.
  • Allan Quartermaine: I know. I've met the Irish before.
  • Allan Quartermaine: Who are you?
  • Umbopa: I'm a man who looks for diamonds and hangs about your camp. That's what YOU said!
  • Cmdr. Good: What are you going to do with your share of the money?
  • Allan Quartermaine: If we get out of this? Go back to England and keep sheep.
  • Cmdr. Good: Oh... I think I'll buy myself a battleship and rejoin the Navy.
  • Patrick 'Patsy' O'Brien: You'll think me a casual kind of a Mick who doesn't give a crust if I have a shilling in me pocket to buy a square meal for me own flesh and blood. But it's the way we Irish have, to take our troubles with a smile on our teeth, while underneath, there's deep shame in me heart. Do you think I don't know what I owe to that child of mine asleep there? I do know! And here is what I need to pay that debt in full.
  • Allan Quartermaine: With your life, huh?
  • Patrick 'Patsy' O'Brien: If God wills it, with me life.
  • Allan Quartermaine: [Having a sudden realization] YOU are the son of Imotu!
  • Umbopa: I am the son of Imotu.
