[After the Nautilus has rammed and sunk a munitions ship, destroying it with all hands]

Captain Nemo:
I asked you to leave, Professor.

Professor Arronax:
You also asked me ashore, to show me man's inhumanity to man. Why? To justify this? You are not only a murderer, you are a hypocrite. The proof lies out there.

Captain Nemo:
You call that murder? Well, I see murder, too. Not on those drowned faces out there, but on the faces of dead thousands! They are the assassins, the dealers in death. I am the avenger! Is murder a right reserved for that hated nation? They've already taken everything else from me! Everything but my secrets, the secret of my submarine boat and the energy that propels it. They tried! They cast me in a prison, and when they failed... when they failed, they tortured my wife and young son to death.
