• (Sebastian Cabot) "Many strange legends are told of these jungles of India, but none so strange as the story of a small boy named Mowgli. It all began when the silence of the jungle was broken by an unfamiliar sound."
• (Sebastian Cabot) "It was a sound like one never heard before in this part of the jungle. It was a man cub. Had I known how deeply I was to be involved, I would've obeyed my first impulse and walked away."

• (Mowgli) "Bagheera, where are we going?"
• (Sebastian Cabot) "You're going back to the man-village right now."

• (Father Wolf) "Yes, Akela?"

• (Father Wolf) "Leave?"
• (John Abbott) "I am sorry, Rama; there is no other way."
• (Father Wolf) "But -- but the man-cub is -- is like my own son. Surely he's entitled to the protection of the pack."
• (John Abbott) "But, Rama, even the strength of the pack is no match for the tiger."
• (Father Wolf) "But the boy cannot survive alone in the jungle."
• (Sebastian Cabot) "Akela, perhaps I can be of help."
• (John Abbott) "You, Bagheera? How?"
• (Sebastian Cabot) "I know of a man-village where he'll be safe. Mowgli and I have taken many walks into the jungle together. I'm sure he'll go with me."
