Evy
We've had bad before.
Rick This is worse.
Rick Ok, you're here, the bad guys are here, Evy's been kidnapped. Let me guess...
Yes, they once again removed the creature from his grave.
I don't mean to point fingers, but isn't your job to make sure that doesn't happen?
Wherever this man is, your wife will surely be.
Hey, I know him. He's the curator. He works at the British Museum.

[on seeing Rick's tattoo]
If I were to say to you that, "I am a stranger traveling from the East, seeking that which is lost"...
Rick ... Then I would reply that, "I am a stranger traveling from the West, it is I whom you seek." How did you...?
Then it is true. You have the sacred mark.
Rick What, that? No, that got slapped on me when I was in an orphanage in Cairo.
That mark means you are a protector of man. A warrior for God. A Medjai.
Rick I'm sorry. You've got the wrong guy.

What's the matter with my car?
I was forced to find an alternative means of transportation.
Rick A DOUBLE-DECKER BUS!?
Well...[points at Alex] It was his idea.
Was not!
Was to!
Was NOT!
Rick Just go!
Rick [Bus pulls away. Mummies give chase, climbing over Rick's car and destroying it in the process]
No, no, not my car! [menacingly] Oh I hate mummies!
O'Connell, if you give me that gold stick there, you can shave my head, wax my legs, and use me for a surfboard.
Rick Didn't we do that in Tripoli?
Rick You know, it's not easy, being a dad.
Yeah. But you do it real good.
Pull me up! Pull me up!
Rick It's not worth your life, you idiot!
Yes, it is! Yes, it is!
