- Grantham: Good morning, Adamant. Nice of you to come so soon.
- Adam Adamant: 'All haste, all haste, defend the crown'. It's my family motto. On my mother's side.
- Susan: Ah. All tucked up in bed and waiting. What a good little boy.
- Adam Adamant: [peeking over the covers] I'm glad that you're pleased with me, madam, but I must point out that I'm not a boy and that I stand six foot in my stocking feet.
- Adam Adamant: My dear miss Jones.
- Georgina Jones: I'm so glad you're still alive!
- Adam Adamant: So am I, Miss Jones. I think we might celebrate. A good burgundy for me and glass of sarsaparilla for you.
- Georgina Jones: Celebrate?
- Adam Adamant: Yes. Our return from the dead.
- Ernest Wilson: [Adamant & Wilson are fencing] You fight... in the exact style of my great grandfather!
- Adam Adamant: I ought to... he tought me!
