Quotes 

• Jonny Quest : Boy, how come an eleven-year-old knows so many tricks?

  Hadji : I don't know. Just smart, I guess.

• Jonny Quest : You know what the trouble with the world is, Race?

  Roger T. 'Race' Bannon : Nope. Suppose you tell me.

  Jonny Quest : It's gotten too scientific.

• Commander Valmar : If you will not cooperate, the boy will.

  Jonny Quest : You won't get me to talk.

  Commander Valmar : You misunderstand. After we begin to..."work" on you, your companion will be only too glad to talk.

• Jonny Quest : What'll we do, Dad?

  Dr. Benton C. Quest : I wish I knew, Son. We're in a tight spot.

  Hadji : [removing the ruby from his turban and speaking to the guard]  If we're in THAT bad a spot, I will not need this fabulous, priceless jewel any longer. Would you like it? It is literally priceless. Observe the red highlights, the way it flashes. That is the way you can tell how expensive it really is, by the flashes. See? You have to look close.

  [the guard becomes hypnotized] 

  Hadji : If your gun is too heavy, you may drop it.

• Jonny Quest : You're pretty smart for an eleven-year-old.

  Hadji : Yes, I know.

  Hadji : [to the guard carrying Hadji]  To the machine, James.

  Hadji : [to Jonny, Race and Dr. Quest]  Sorry I can't give you gentlemen a lift. You'll just have to rough it.

• Jonny Quest : That explosion, Race! What was it?

  Roger T. 'Race' Bannon : Oh, nothing much. Just our late host saying so long.

• [Hadji accepts Dr. Quest's invitation to join him in meeting a scientific delegation from Calcutta] 

  Jonny Quest : How come you're goin', Haj?

  Hadji : It has been a long time since I spoke with anyone from my own land, and maybe someone in the delegation will teach me another ancient trick of the orient, like this: Sim sim salabim.

  Jonny Quest : [finding himself floating up into the sky]  Oh, no, not the levitation trick again. Hey, Hadji, that's enough. Let me down.

  Hadji : Would you like to come down slow or fast?

  Jonny Quest : Oh, slow, please. Real slow.

• Col. Svedri : Start the Prober.

  Roger T. 'Race' Bannon : Negative, chum. If you think I'm letting you walk off with five years research, think again.

  Col. Svedri : You laugh at bullets, American?

  Roger T. 'Race' Bannon : Not at bullets, at you. Who's gonna operate the Prober if you shoot me?

  Col. Svedri : Who mentioned shooting you? But, your young friend here, that is a different matter. Now would you reconsider your decision?

  Jonny Quest : Don't give into him, Race.

  Roger T. 'Race' Bannon : I have to, Jonny. Your dad expects me to take care of ya. Can't let him down, can we?

  Jonny Quest : [disappointed]  I guess not.
