Quotes:

Walter: [subtitled version] Death gives a reason to our lives. More important then that, death creates a special value for time. If our time on earth was undetermined, life on its own wouldn't make any sense and probably we would still be living without clothes and with a spear on hand. Death is the most powerful agent in nature, it comes to take away the old and make space for the new. Our effort to avoid it and make our short stay here something slightly memorable is what motivates us. Life only exists because of death.

Police oficer: [a popular saying about BOPE] "Dagger to the skull and nothing to the wallet."

Capitão Nascimento: Mr. 02, you'll never make it through this course, you know why? It's not because you are fucking weak and have no fiber. It's because you're a crooked cop, Mr. 02, and to wear this badge [taps the skull badge] you gotta have character. You don't belong here, Mr. 02, you belong with the hookers and the pimps, Mr. 02.

Also on board is Ensign Pulver, who avoids work as best he can, whilst living off the riches of his buying and selling.

Quotes:

Doug Roberts: I looked down from our bridge and saw our captain's palm tree! Our trophy for superior achievement! The Admiral John J. Finchley award for delivering more toothpaste and toilet paper than any other Navy cargo ship in the safe area of the Pacific.

[last lines]::Ensign Pulver: Captain, it is I, Ensign Pulver, and I just threw your stinkin' palm tree overboard! Now what's all this crud about no movie tonight?

Doug Roberts: We've got nothing to do with the war. Maybe that's why we're on this ship, cause we're not good enough to fight. Cause our glands don't secrete enough adrenaline, or our great-great- grandmothers were afraid of the dark or something.::Lt. 'Doc': What is it you want to be, Doug, a hero?::Doug Roberts: Hero? Doc, you haven't heard a word I've said. Look, Doc, the war's way out there, and I'm here. Well, I don't want to be here, I wanna be out there. I'm sick and tired of being a lousy spectator.

Reber: Say, Doc, when I woke up this morning, I had...::Lt. 'Doc': And remembered you were working cargo. Continue.::Reber: [holds his side] Honest, Doc, I couldn't even straighten up! I guess it's the old appendix again, huh, Doc?::Lt. 'Doc': That appendix of yours certainly gets around, Reber. Now it's on the wrong side. Two aspirin, marked for duty. Next.::Reber: Aspirin? For a floatin' appendix, Doc?::Lt. 'Doc': Yes, it's the latest thing. I'll have one with you.

Lt. 'Doc': That's mostly what makes physical heroism. Opportunity. It's a reflex. I think that seventy-five out of a hundred young males have that reflex. You take any one of them. Say even Frank Thurlowe Pulver, here. Put him into a B-29 over Japan, and you know what you'd have?::Doug Roberts: No I don't, Doctor.::Lt. 'Doc': You'd have Pulver, the Congressional Medal of Honor winner. Pulver, who single-handed shot down twenty-three attacking Zeros. Pulver who, with his bare hands, held together the severed wing struts of his plane, and with his bare feet successfully landed his mortally wounded plane on his home field. Reflex. It's like the knee jerk. Strike the patella tendon in any human being, you produce the knee jerk. Look.::[Doc hits Pulver in the knee and nothing happens]::Ensign Pulver: What's the matter, Doc?::Lt. 'Doc': Nothing, but stay out of B-29s, Frank, my boy.

Doug Roberts: Captain, you told me...::Capt. Morton: Never mind what I told you. I'M TELLING YOU!

Doug Roberts: Doc, he lies in his sack all day long, bores me silly with great, moronic plots against the captain. He's never carried out one of them.::Ensign Pulver: I haven't, huh?::Doug Roberts: No, Frank, you haven't. What ever happened to those marbles you were gonna put in the captain's overhead so they'd roll around all night and keep him awake?::Ensign Pulver: Now you've gone too far. Now you've asked for it. [Pulls out a box] What does that look like? Five marbles. Got another one in my pocket. Six marbles. I'm looking for marbles all day long!

Doug Roberts: Doc, that new hospital hasn't got nurses, has it?::Lt. 'Doc': It didn't have yesterday.::Ensign Pulver: It has today.::Lt. 'Doc': And how did you find out they were there?::Ensign Pulver: It just came to me all of a sudden. I was lying on my bunk this morning, thinking. And there wasn't a breath of air. And all of a sudden, a funny thing happened. A little breeze came up, and I took a big, deep breath, and I said to myself "Pulver, boy, there's women on that island!"

Doug Roberts: Frank, I like you. There's no getting around the fact that you're a real likable guy.::Ensign Pulver: Yeah? Yeah!::Doug Roberts: But...::Ensign Pulver: But what?::Doug Roberts: Well, I also think you're the most hapless, lazy, disorganized, and in general most lecherous person I've ever known in my life.::Ensign Pulver: I am not!::Doug Roberts: You're not what?::Ensign Pulver: I am not disorganized!

Doug Roberts: You pretend you want me to improve your mind. You've never finished one book I've given you to read.::Ensign Pulver: I've finished "God's Little Acre," Doug boy!::Doug Roberts: I didn't give you that. He's been reading "God's Little Acre" for over a year now. He's underlined every erotic passage and added exclamation points. And after a certain pornographic climax, he's inserted the words "well written."
