"Are you sure you are German?"

No shouting, no swastikas, no crude threats of violence, Visscher didn't seem at all like the Germans Belloq knew.

"It is your skills that will be foremost needed if we find the lost explorers. If they are still alive. That is one thing about this that is very different from archaeology. Archaeology is patient. If there is any rush at all, it is only because a competitor is on the scent too and one must find the site before some brash American gets there first and leaves again with the relics in hand before one has even arrived. But otherwise, the artifacts themselves have laid in place for thousands of years and it does not matter if they lie a few days more."
