- There used to be ridges there for maybe two miles.
- Now there's less than half a city block. Soon we will have nowhere to run.
- That's the idea, isn't it?

- Do you think it'll work now, Hank?

- It should, everything's put together.

- The generator's always worked. All we have to worry about is the strength of our signal. That is, if Dr. Deveroux and Carson will leave us alone long enough to try it out.

- I'm afraid they won't. Rather than our receiving radio signals, they would prefer to receive us in that great common stomach of theirs.

- Well, come on, Karl, let's go out and see what's left of this rock.

- I hope there is still something left upon which to stand.

- Well, I guess it's about time I fixed us some food.

- There used to be ridges there for maybe two miles.

- Now there's less than half a city block. Soon we will have nowhere to run.

- That's the idea, isn't it?

- The path is still there.

- Yes, Karl, but where does it lead?

- To the pit and to the sea. At least to the sea.

- We'll soon find out.

- Aloha, Malihinis. This is your favorite disc jockey, Pineapple Joe. Listen now to Mukakima and his Ola'Kai boys playing Muana Loa Lover.

- It's working.

- Only the receiver, not the transmitter.

- Well, can you fix it?

- I don't know. Maybe with this telegraph key and a Morse code setup.

- Well, we don't have to worry about the pit any longer, Karl.

- No. Shall we go?

- Might as well.

Top rated lines from this movie

The pity is that all fires must one day burn out.
Preservation of the species. Once they were men, now they are land crabs.
Hearken to all things metal, for I may be in them.
We are unquestionably on the brink of a great discovery. It is not likely that that discovery will be of a pleasant nature.
We are dealing with a man who is dead, but whose voice and memory live. How this can be, I do not know. But its implications are far more terrible than any ghost could ever be.
