Quotes 

• Kruger : Tarzan. You talk aways of this Ape Man. We are four. What have we to be afraid of?

  Slade : Listen, Kruger, no one's afraid. But don't delude yourself that we're four to one. Tarzan won't come in the front door, you know. He'll just wait down there and pick us off one by one if we're fools enough to give him the chance. Now I'm telling you, all of you, don't help him by destroying yourselves.

• Toni : What about Tarzan?

  Slade : If he's alive, he'll come to me.

• [last lines] 

  Slade : Come on up, Ape Man. Let's see you.

• Slade : Diamonds can't buy what I want.

• Kruger : I understand you now. It was the danger, the plan, and making it work. And now that we've found the diamonds, you're not interested anymore. Because the danger is out there now, with that ape-man. And there's nothing else for you in the whole world but to kill him.

  Slade : You're right, Kruger. And I'm gonna to kill him, with this. I can't wait for it. I dream of it, you know, I... I long for it. Every minute that goes by is a minute wasted. A madness? Maybe it is, but it's me, do you understand? It's me! I was born with this, and I'll live with it and die by it.

• Slade : The prospect of riches is making them edgy. It does that to most men.

  Toni : Not to you.

• Toni : I am a jealous woman.

  Slade : Jealous of what?

  Toni : Of anything that takes any part of you away from me.

  Slade : Nothing does.

  Toni : Then why are you watching the river?
