„Whoever calls himself Canadian calls himself French.“
— Jules Verne
Part I, ch. IV: Ned Land
„It was all very well for an Englishman like Mr. Fogg to make the tour of the world with a carpet-bag; a lady could not be expected to travel comfortably under such conditions.“
— Jules Verne
Ch. XX: In Which Fix Comes Face to Face with Phileas Fogg
„As for seeing the town, he did not even think of it, being of that breed of Britons who have their servants do their sightseeing for them.“
— Jules Verne
Ch. VII: Which once more shows the futility of passports for police purposes. Tr. William Butcher (1995)
„Now when an American has an idea, he directly seeks a second American to share it. If there be three, they elect a president and two secretaries. Given four, they name a keeper of records, and the office is ready for work; five, they convene a general meeting, and the club is fully constituted.“
— Jules Verne
Ch. I: The Gun Club
„While his heart still beats, while his flesh still moves, I cannot accept that a being endowed with will-power can give in to despair.“
— Jules Verne
Ch. XLII in the French text, Tr. William Butcher (1992)
„What good would it be to discuss such a proposition, when force could destroy the best arguments?“
— Jules Verne
Part I, ch. X: The Man of the Seas
„The human mind delights in grand conceptions of supernatural beings. And the sea is precisely their best vehicle, the only medium through which these giants (against which terrestrial animals, such as elephants or rhinoceroses, are as nothing) can be produced or developed“
— Jules Verne
Part I, ch. II: Pro and Con
„Man is so constituted that health is a purely negative state. Hunger once satisfied, it is difficult for a man to imagine the horrors of starvation; they cannot be understood without being felt.“
— Jules Verne
Ch. XLII: Headlong speed upward through the horrors of darkness
„Nothing can astound an American. It has often been asserted that the word "impossible" is not a French one. People have evidently been deceived by the dictionary. In America, all is easy, all is simple; and as for mechanical difficulties, they are overcome before they arise. Between Barbicane's proposition and its realization no true Yankee would have allowed even the semblance of a difficulty to be possible. A thing with them is no sooner said than done.“
— Jules Verne
Ch. III: Effect of the President's Communication
