Phileas: [about the goat that ate his paper] Please keep that inconsiderate beast away from me! And refrain from ridiculous anecdotes.
Indian Child on the train: Why do you not like his story, Mr. Frog?
Phileas: It's Fogg. Phileas Fogg. How could a man learn to defend himself by watching animals behave like... animals?
Monique: It is famous legend.
Phileas: A ridiculous legend.
Monique: Most legends are born from truth.
Phileas: Yes. But all truths are born from facts. Solid, tangible facts that can be calculated and written down on paper.

Phileas: [chagrined] Only if the man's name was Feelsillious Frog...
