• Eric : We'll lose a lot of money if Jane doesn't help us.

  Tarzan : Money?

  Rita : Yes, money - you know, to get clothes and food and ...

  Tarzan : Food, clothes, money?

  Eric : No, Tarzan, you don't understand. Money isn't that, it's ...

  Jane : Of course he doesn't understand. I hope he never does!

• Captain Fry : No safari native could be induced to disregard the juju.

  Eric : Well, what's juju?

  Captain Fry : Oh, black magic, taboo, anything that's forbidden.

• Eric : Come along, Rita.

  Captain Fry : Not that way, Miss Parker.

  Eric : Well, why not?

  Captain Fry : Ever chuck a stick into a hornets' nest?

• Eric : We land here, Bomba.

  Bomba : Yes, bwana.

• Eric : Jane, why not bring Tarzan with you?

  Jane : Back to London?

  Rita : Yes, of course! If you like it, you could spend half your time here and half your time there.

  Jane : No, Rita. Out here, Tarzan's a king. How do I know what he'd be back there? Perhaps, at first, sort of a freak. And then, as he learnt more about civilization he'd realize he was dependent on his rich wife. He'd never tolerate that. Or if he did, it might be even worse.

• Rita : What is the exact nature of this particular superstition?

  Captain Fry : A race of great apes. With a leader. A very capable leader, too, it would seem. With power of life and death over the entire jungle. But, the oddest thing about him, according to these stories, is his color.

  Eric : His color?

  Captain Fry : White.

  Rawlins : Blimey. A white gorilla?
