Anthony Hopkins: Adam Kelno

Quotes 

• Adam Kelno : [as the sheik's men are firing]  I didn't know you hunted.

  Sheik Hassan : Oh, yes, but not only for food but also for the quality of understanding between men and death.

  Adam Kelno : Then it's sophisticated.

  Sheik Hassan : [L aughs]  ... for a primitive people.

  Adam Kelno : Oh, no, I didn't mean that way.

  Sheik Hassan : Yes, but you think that.

• Sheik Hassan : You know, you puzzle me. Uh, what do you really want from us?

  Adam Kelno : What, there's enough suffering in the world which cannot be avoided, and the doctor wants to treat that which can be.

  Sheik Hassan : Hmmm...

  Adam Kelno : My wife... she's a nurse. Please would you let me bring her here to stand by me as I treat your women.

  Sheik Hassan : Uh, I do not see how this can profit you.

  Adam Kelno : It is my profession.

  Sheik Hassan : My profession is to be a trader, and I-I do not give things away. Now, if you will excuse me, Doctor, I sense that somewhere you must have fallen from God's grace to want to give of yourself thiis-this desperately to strangers.
