Darrus Biederbeck
- Darius Biederbeck: I gave specific orders that no expeditions were to occur without my leadership.
- Baker: Is this your mountain, sir?
- Darius Biederbeck: I regard it as such.
- Baker: Are we to take that literally, sir?
- Darius Biederbeck: You can take it any way you see fit.
- Dr. Anton Phibes: I, too, have searched, Beiderbeck, but not for myself. For my Victoria. I offer you the same goal, the life of your beloved. But hurry. When the bough breaks, my friend...
- Darius Biederbeck: It could be a trick. Why should I trust you of all people?
- Dr. Anton Phibes: Not me. The ancient artisans who built these chambers. When the gates are unlocked, the water from Diana's pool will drain out and she will be free. Save her! Don't be a fool. Soon, it will be too late.
- Darius Biederbeck: For whom?
- Dr. Anton Phibes: For us all, especially Diana. Every second brings her closer to a terrible death. Can you pay that price, Beiderbeck? The key!
- Darius Biederbeck: The devil take you, Phibes.
- Dr. Anton Phibes: The devil take me? Not for some considerable time, I trust.
- Darius Biederbeck: You're in the desert, my dear. You're not taking tea in Mayfair.
- Diana: I am aware of that. I've drunk plenty of tea in Mayfair without finding dead bodies at my feet.
- Dr. Anton Phibes: It is a pity, in a way. We have so much in common.
- Darius Biederbeck: You flatter yourself.
- Dr. Anton Phibes: I think not. For years I have had one terrible obsession - to find the River of Life once used by the Pharaohs of Egypt. It lies beyond those gates, a river that gives new life, again and again and again.
- Darius Biederbeck: Why do you think I came here?
- Dr. Anton Phibes: You have all the life you need.
- Darius Biederbeck: No more, Phibes. The elixir that gave my life for a hundred years is gone. It has suspended time and age, but no more.
- Dr. Anton Phibes: How long? How many years?
- Darius Biederbeck: Too long to remember. Too long to throw it all away now!
- Darius Biederbeck: Phibes!
- Dr. Anton Phibes: So, at last we meet, Beiderbeck.
- Darius Biederbeck: Where's Diana?
- Dr. Anton Phibes: Waiting, as we all must wait.
- Darius Biederbeck: So, that's it. The key.
- Dr. Anton Phibes: My key.
- Darius Biederbeck: No. For years I've searched. The Temple of Abiskis, the River of Life. It's mine, Phibes.
- Dr. Anton Phibes: Then your beloved will die. For only the key will save her now.
- Darius Biederbeck: You lie. The key controls the gates, nothing more.
- Dr. Anton Phibes: The key controls the gates and much more: the life of your Diana. And you have only three minutes to use it. Now, save your Diana.
- Darius Biederbeck: Every move I make, everything, concerns our future together.
- Diana: Well, if it's anything like now it's going to be bloody awful.
- Inspector Trout: But you haven't got a chance!
- Sir Wayne Waverley: He'll chop you down like the rest of them!
- Darius Biederbeck: I'm not like the rest of them! Phibes may put the fear of God in you, but not me. Now stay out of my way!
