Quotes 

  • Monique La Roche : Where's your proof?

    Lord Kelvin : This is the Royal Academy of Science! We don't have to prove anything!

  • [Monique, Phileas and Passepartout are disguised as women in India] 

    Phileas Fogg : I feel faint.

    Monique La Roche : Phileas, women are not that weak.

    Phileas Fogg : No, but I am.

  • [Monique has just knocked out General Fang with a martial arts strike] 

    Passepartout : [astonished]  She must be the eleventh tiger!

    Monique La Roche : [curls fingers into claws]  Meow.

  • Prince Hapi : You two men may leave but Miss La Roche stays here.

    Phileas Fogg : Why does she stay?

    Prince Hapi : She will be my wife. One of seven.

    Monique La Roche : Surprised. You have seven wives?

    Prince Hapi : One for every day of the week. Do Tuesdays work for you?

  • Monique La Roche : [just after Philieas has discovered the truth and is leaving]  Don't let him go. He'll be lost by midnight. Go.

    [to Passepartout] 

    Phileas Fogg : [outside, surrounded by thugs with swords to his neck as Passepartout finds him]  More of your relatives, I suppose.

  • Passepartout : [in the warehouse, seeing the Statue of Liberty in pieces]  That's a big man.

    Monique La Roche : It is a lady. A French lady.

    Phileas Fogg : [turning to see General Fang and her henchmen]  She looks like an evil Chinese warlord to me.

    General Fang : Your journey has caused quite a stir, Mr. Fogg. But I'm afraid it ends here.

    Passepartout : Leave them alone, Fang. This has nothing to do with them.

    General Fang : On the contrary, Lau Xing. Lord Kelvin and I have made new arrangements to conquer Lanzhou. Unfortunately for Mr. Fogg, they entail his... permanent detour.

  • Monique La Roche : I'm sorry, Phileas.

    Phileas Fogg : Don't be, my cheri. I saw the world. I learnt of new cultures. I flew across an ocean. I wore women's clothing. Made a friend.

    [he takes Monique's hand] 

    Phileas Fogg : Fell in love. Who cares if I lost a wager?

    Queen Victoria : I do! I've got 20 quid riding on you.

    Phileas Fogg : Your Majesty, it has gone 12 noon.

    Queen Victoria : Correct. Which gives you 24 hours remaining.

  • Monique La Roche : [dedication on a painting]  I travelled the world for inspiration, and found it in a man who lives what he dreams.
