Dr. Kersaint
- DeLaage: My dear doctor, I'm ready to give my wife and my friends anything I own in the world except my sense of honor and duty.
- Dr. Kersaint: A sense of honor in the South Seas is about as useful and often as silly as a silk hat in a hurricane.
- Dr. Kersaint: You know, I play a kind of chess game with the oldest gambler in the world, Mehevi. He takes Mama Rua, and I checkmate him with a baby.

- Dr. Kersaint: I'll think I'll have another drop of cognac just to keep the wind out of my bones on the way home.
- Dr. Kersaint: Father Paul took your wife to the church. It seemed the safest place. I'd have gone, too, except I couldn't desert my patient.
- DeLaage: That's the last you saw of her?
- Dr. Kersaint: Well it grew so dark, you couldn't see the church from the reef boat. But when that bell stopped ringing all of a sudden, I knew what happened.
