Huerequeque (The Cook): Those bare-asses have never heard music like that. That will teach them to respect us.
Brian Sweeney Fitzgerald - 'Fitzcarraldo': I told you in Iquitos I need men, not milquetoasts who shit in their pants. Now, whoever wants to go back, step forward.

Brian Sweeney Fitzgerald - 'Fitzcarraldo': How can anyone learn patriotism from a school book? Young Missionary: The Government requires it. Old Missionary: The natives get used to it. Like vaccination. Young Missionary: The children already feel like little Peruvians. The other day I asked them, "Are you Indians?" "No," they said, "not we, the ones up the river, they are Indians." And then I asked. "What are Indians?" "They said to me "Indians are people who can't read and who don't know how to wash their clothes." Brian Sweeney Fitzgerald - 'Fitzcarraldo': And what about the older people? Old Missionary: Well, we can't seem to cure them of the idea that our everyday life is only an illusion, behind which lies the reality of dreams. Brian Sweeney Fitzgerald - 'Fitzcarraldo': Actually, I'm very interested in these ideas. I specialise in opera myself.
Don Aquilino: Ladies and gentlemen, don't worry. This gentleman is harmless. He's just had a, a soul-stirring experience. Rubber Baron: Sir. My servants will conduct you to the kitchen. My dogs' cook will prepare you a meal. Thank you very much, sir. You were superb. Brian Sweeney Fitzgerald - 'Fitzcarraldo': To your dogs' cook. Brian Sweeney Fitzgerald - 'Fitzcarraldo': To Verdi. Brian Sweeney Fitzgerald - 'Fitzcarraldo': To Rossini. Brian Sweeney Fitzgerald - 'Fitzcarraldo': To Caruso. Rubber Baron: To Fitzcarraldo, the Conquistador of the Useless! Rubber Baron: Cheers! Brian Sweeney Fitzgerald - 'Fitzcarraldo': As true as I am standing here, one day I shall bring grand opera to Iquitos. I will outgut you. I will outnumber you. I will outbillion you. I will outrubber you. I will outperform you. Sir, the reality of your world is nothing more than a rotten caricature of great opera. Molly: Fitz, Fitz, let's go. This man is no opponent. He's as dead as a doornail. Rubber Baron: Madam, I'm still standing firm on both my legs. Molly: You're a big game hunter, aren't you? Rubber Baron: What's that got to do with it? Molly: Then you should know: When you shoot an elephant, he sometimes stays on his legs for ten days before he topples over. Good night!
Don Aquilino: You know, the two of us have a bet going - how long it will take until you go bankrupt. Oh, please don't take it personally. We're all sportsmen, aren't we? Brian Sweeney Fitzgerald - 'Fitzcarraldo': No, only one of us. I shall move a mountain.
Brian Sweeney Fitzgerald - 'Fitzcarraldo': I'm doing all this because I have one dream. The opera. The great opera in the jungle. Molly: Fitzcarraldo will build it and Caruso will sing at the premiere. It's only the dreamers who move mountains.
Brian Sweeney Fitzgerald - 'Fitzcarraldo': What's he saying? Don Aquilino: We must be quiet. He says whoever talks will be swallowed up the evil spirits of the whirlpool. Shh.
Notary: Can I ask you a question of a personal nature? Do you really know what you're doing? Brian Sweeney Fitzgerald - 'Fitzcarraldo': We're gonna do what nobody's ever done. Molly: We're going to be very, very rich.
Captain (Orinoco Paul): What do you know about the Jivaros on the upper course? I was there during the disaster of '96. Have you had any contact since then? Young Missionary: Yes, some years ago. Two of our brothers set off with some natives. One of them came back a few days later and said that the Jivaros had withdrawn into the forest. The expedition vanished without a trace. Then, a few weeks later, one of the brothers was washed up. He was already rotting away and his head was gone. Anyway, what do you want up there? Brian Sweeney Fitzgerald - 'Fitzcarraldo': I'm planning something geographical.
Huerequeque (The Cook): These Jivaro people left the interior of Brazil about 300 years ago. For ten generations, they've been wandering through the jungle looking for a white god in a sacred boat. And they believe at the end of their pilgrimage, the white god would show them a land without sorrow, without death, where people stay young forever. Brian Sweeney Fitzgerald - 'Fitzcarraldo': We are gonna take advantage of this myth.
Brian Sweeney Fitzgerald - 'Fitzcarraldo': There. There's the Ucayali. All the river above Pongo das Mortes belongs to us. Huerequeque (The Cook): I knew it. I knew it! We are going to build a tunnel for the railway to go through. Brian Sweeney Fitzgerald - 'Fitzcarraldo': No. We gonna drag that ship over the mountain. And the bare-asses are going to help us. Captain (Orinoco Paul): How the hell are you going to do that? Brian Sweeney Fitzgerald - 'Fitzcarraldo': Just like the cow jumped over the moon.
Brian Sweeney Fitzgerald - 'Fitzcarraldo': Shouldn't we tell him that it melts? There'll be nothing left of it. Huerequeque (The Cook): There is no word for ice in their language.
Brian Sweeney Fitzgerald - 'Fitzcarraldo': Why are they doing all this? Why are they working like horses for us? Why? Why? Why? Why? Why? Huerequeque (The Cook): I don't know. I really don't know. the only thing I know is that there must be a reason for it.
