Quotes 

• Mr. Schubert : Mr. Havergal, there is no profit in gratuitous cruelty.

  Havergal : These people give me the creeps!

  Mr. Schubert : Well, we must envision the opposite. Obviously we give them the creeps, too.

• Mr. Schubert : I don't like people who whimper. You're an amateur, Mr. Havergal, you're fired. Now the rest of you, listen to me!

  Havergal : Nobody's listening to you from here on in, fat man!

  [runs off] 

  Mr. Schubert : I pay your salary!

  Havergal : [turns round]  Well what good is a salary if you can't live to spend it?

• Mr. Schubert : Any sign of the crystals yet?

  Havergal : A mountain of crystals under the water? No, sir. No sign at all.

  Havergal : I guess I'm just a sceptic. But if there were something so sparkling, heh heh, someone else would have found it by now.

  Mr. Schubert : I wonder how often Columbus heard that.

• Mr. Schubert : All right, we're on our way at last thanks to our web-fingered friend.

• Mr. Schubert : Cooperation is not an request, it's an absolute necessity.

• Mr. Schubert : It's very difficult to dominate the world from an island at the bottom of the ocean.
