Quotes 

• Robert Hayward : Bullit this must be kind of a dull life for you. No more safaris for the great white hunter.

  John Bullit : A man can't take his wife and child on safari. And he'd be a fool to leave a woman like this alone.

  [puts his arm around Christine] 

  Robert Hayward : Especially when there's poachers about.

  John Bullit : Right, Sport.

• Robert Hayward : Who's King?

  Christine : King is a full grown lion. He happens to be Tina's constant companion. Her best friend.

  John Bullit : Yes, you should see them romping together. It's quite a sight.

• John Bullit : Rather posh for an ex-husband, isn't it?

• John Bullit : I never worry about things like that. Worrying can kill a man.

• Christine : I knew you knew.

  John Bullit : And you never think it's necessary for you to explain your actions, do you. I like it that way. You know you're somebody and you never forget it. Neither do I.

• John Bullit : Keep calm. This is just his way of asking for Tina as his bride. It's not meant as an insult.

• John Bullit : The child wants her mother. The mother wants her husband. The hunter wants to hunt.

• John Bullit : Now, the fat's in the fire.

• John Bullit : He's as dead as he'll ever be.

• Bogo : They no come back, Bwana?

  John Bullit : No, Bogo. They no come back.
