Everything worth discovering has been discovered. Lord Kelvin: We live in a golden age, Fogg. That would mean that you are a real scientist! Phileas Fogg: By your definition, Kelvin, a real scientist's objective would be to prevent man from progress.

Lord Kelvin: Where is your Royal Academy of Science authorization?! Oh, what am I thinking? What a fool. Phileas Fogg: Gentlemen, today I have proven that man can break the 50 mph speed barrier without disrupting his internal organs. This time, do not let it slip through your fingers. Kitchener? General Fang: My agents will retrieve the Jade Buddha once again, Lord Kelvin. Until the Jade Buddha's back in my possession, you and your cause will receive no British military assistance whatsoever. Seems your little land dispute has spilled over onto our noble shore.

General Fang: The Jade Buddha was successfully delivered by us to the Bank of England. Lord Kelvin: MY STOLEN JADE BUDDHA, STOLEN! YOU BLIGHTER! YOU GAVE ME EVERY ASSURANCE THAT THE BANK OF ENGLAND WAS IMPENETRABLE! Kitchener: Sir, sir, I said 'impregnable'– Lord Kelvin: IT'S THE SAME THING, YOU IDIOT! Kitchener: PLEASE, NOT THE QUILLS!

The Queen?! Oh, the Queen! That inbred, antiquated old cow! The only way she could stop me is if she sat on me! With her big, fat royal bottom! She's behind me, isn't she?ĭialogue Colonel Kitchener: Sir, I have an urgent announcement for you.

This is the Royal Academy of Science! We don't need to prove anything! Besides, by the time you get out of jail, you'll have lost this wager.What's the point in hiring a corrupt inspector if he can't even abuse the law properly?!.Yet ridiculous dreamers like you insist on a past filled with 'dinosaurs' and 'evolution', and on a future filled with 'motorized vehicles', 'radio waves' and 'flying machines'.

A female General?! What sort of pathetic man takes orders from a woman?.
