Alison Priestley : I know it sounds silly but I took this job thinking I could be part of something important. You know, history in the making, that kind of nonsense.
Dr. Richard Kimble : It's not nonsense.

Dr. Richard Kimble : I don't know.
Alison Priestley : I don't either. I'll think of something.

Davala Unawa : [speaking to Dr. Kimble about the ambassador] Every day he lives, every day he continues to serve the cause to which he has given his entire being. You will not deprive him of that privilege.
Dr. Richard Kimble : Well, how can my presence here threaten that?
Davala Unawa : Scandal at the diplomatic level, Doctor, is sudden death. Your presence here can do more than merely wreck a man's career. It could rewrite the course of history. I'm not unmoved by your plight, Dr. Kimble. I'm simply unable to accommodate it.
