- Paladin: I wonder if he was moved more by his honour as a patriot or by the sight of that cash in your carpet bag.
- Phileas Fogg: Paladin. It shows you have a decent respect for the classics. I shan't enquire into your true name.
- Paladin: I beg your pardon.
- Phileas Fogg: I understand that nearly everyone in this part of the country harvests secret guilt which, if their true name were found out, might expose them the most severe reprisals.
- Paladin: And you are most considerate.
- Phileas Fogg: Yes. Don't try to take advantage of it. In the meantime, your past is of no concern of mine.
- Phileas Fogg: So, we meet again.
- Major Proctor: Only this time it ain't gonna be so easy. You owe me a duel, mister! I figure on collecting right here and now. And maybe a little side bet with soft cash.
- Phileas Fogg: As I pointed out previously, I have no intention of meeting on the field of honour with someone who can neither lay claim to honour or breeding.
- Major Proctor: And I'm calling you a yellow, dirt-licking, toad-eating, limey skunk.
- Phileas Fogg: It seems to me that our respective countries' eating habits are neither here nor there.
- Phileas Fogg: It was because of sheer madness, as you chose to call it, that my nation was able to build an empire upon which the sun never sets.
- Paladin: Fogg! You have circled three quarters of this globe with your eyes entirely closed to everything except your small creature comforts, and your inflexible routines! Very well! I think it's just about time you found out that this is one country where the ground rules of cricket won't get you to second base!
- Paladin: [First lines] Fogg, in our struggling young nation, we can't yet afford to play for the sake of a jolly good game. The Colonel has a gun. He's playing to win and so am I.
