Captain Haddock: Failed. There are plenty of others willing to call you a failure. A fool. A loser. A hopeless souse. Don't you ever say it of yourself. You send out the wrong signal, that is what people pick up. Don't you understand? You care about something, you fight for it. You hit a wall, you push through it. There's something you need to know about failure, Tintin. You can never let it defeat you.

Isabelle: We could get into trouble.

Carl Van Loon: Your powers are a gift from God, or whoever the hell wrote your life script.

Henrik Vanger: Soon you'll know us all too well, with my apologies.
