Jonny Quest Versus the Cyber Insects (1995 TV Movie)

Kevin Smets: Jonny Quest

Quotes 

• Jonny Quest : We failed, haven't we, Chief Atacama?

  Chief Atacama : Many do not pass the Orinokon test of manhood the first time.

  Jonny Quest : But we overcame every obstacle! We reached the sacred circle!

  Chief Atacama : And then you ignored your friend's warning. Do you see the lesson in this? You were headstrong and impulsive, Jonny Quest. Before a child may enter the circle of adults, he must first learn the virtues of patience and caution.

  Dr. Benton C. Quest : Easier said than done, Chief Atacama. Whatever my son may be, he's never been patient. Or cautious.

• 4-DAC : Greetings, young Jonny. I apologize if I startled you.

  Jonny Quest : You shouldn't sneak up behind people like that, 4-DAC.

  Hadji : Yes, you were as quiet as a cobra.

  4-DAC : Ah. Perhaps I should shut down and program myself to make footsteps.

• Race Bannon : A series of high-pressure storm systems blanketing the world! Impossible!

  Jessie Kenyon : Not if something hot was creating a strong convection current in one of the three principle jet streams.

  Jonny Quest : Oh, sure, a volcano is doing all this. Or how about a forest fire?

  Dr. Benton C. Quest : Don't be so quick to criticize, Jonny. Any reasonable theory must be explored, and Jessie's suggestion is quite reasonable.

• Jessie Kenyon : This is Quest Station's last known location.

  Jonny Quest : Could it have blown up?

  Jessie Kenyon : No way! There'd be twelve-thousand tons of debris floating out there!

  Jessie Kenyon : But how can an entire space station just disappear?

  Hadji : Yes, not even I am capable of that kind of magic.

• Jonny Quest : You mean when we blow those things up, all the bits and pieces will grow back into new ones?

  4-DAC : Exactly.

  Jessie Kenyon : Then how would we ever destroy one?

  4-DAC : There are two ways. Thermal nuclear explosion...

  Hadji : [interrupting nervously]  Let us rule that out for now.

• Jessie Kenyon : Jonny? I just wanted to remind you, you're not a kid anymore now that you know how to learn from your mistakes.

  Jonny Quest : Yeah, and thanks to all the mistakes I've been making, I've learned a lot lately.
