Quotes:

Mallory: Can you do anything at all?::Corporal Miller: I don't know. There's always a way to blow up explosives. The trick is not to be around when they go off. But aren't you forgetting something? The lady. As I see it we have three choices. One we can leave her here but there's no guarantee she won't be found, and in her case they won't need a truth drug. Two, we can take her with us, but that would make things worse than they are already. And three... well, that's Andrea's choice, remember?::Mallory: You really want your pound of flesh, don't you?::Corporal Miller: Yes, I do. You see, somehow I just couldn't get to sleep.::Mallory: Well, if you're so anxious to kill her, go ahead!::Corporal Miller: I'm not anxious to kill her, I'm not anxious to kill anyone. You see, I'm not a born soldier. I was trapped. You may find me facetious from time to time, but if I didn't make some rather bad jokes I'd go out of my mind. No, I prefer to leave the killing to someone like you, an officer and a gentleman, a leader of men.::Mallory: If you think I wanted this, any of this, you're out of your mind, I was trapped like you, just like anyone who put on the uniform!::Corporal Miller: Of *course* you wanted it, you're an officer, aren't you? I never let them make *me* an officer! I don't want the responsibility!::Mallory: So you've had a free ride, all this time! Someone's *got* to take responsibility if the job's going to get done! You think that's easy?::Corporal Miller: [shouts] I don't know! I'm not even sure who really is responsible any more.

[last lines]::Corporal Miller: To tell you the truth, I didn't think we could do it.::Capt. Keith Mallory: To tell you the truth, neither did I.

Corporal Miller: I've inspected this vessel, and I think you ought to know that, ah, I can't swim.::Mallory: I'll keep it in mind.

Mallory: Are you sure it will work?::Corporal Miller: There's no guarantee, but the theory's perfectly feasible.

[apologizing for involving Mallory in the Navarone mission]::Major Franklin: No, I'm stupid sometimes. Even when I was a kid, I always took it for granted people wanted to play the games I like, and I'd be furious when they didn't.::Capt. Keith Mallory: Well, now they have to, so why worry?

Corporal Miller: Sir, I've inspected this boat, and I think you ought to know that I can't swim.

Col. Andrea Stavros: [Andrea meets his team again in the ruins of St Alexis] Good evening, Gentlemen::Col. Andrea Stavros: Obviously this place has been used before.::Corporal Miller: Any food around?::Col. Andrea Stavros: I regret to say, no.

Capt. Keith Mallory: I have no time for this!::Corporal Miller: Now just a minute! If we're going to get this job done she has got to be killed! And we all know how keen you are about getting the job done! Now I can't speak for the others but I've never killed a woman, traitor or not, and I'm finicky! So why don't you do it? Let us off for once! Go on, be a pal, be a father to your men! Climb down off that cross of yours, close your eyes, think of England, and pull the trigger! What do you say, Sir?

Corporal Miller: Well, right now I say to hell with the job! I've been on a hundred jobs and not one of them's altered the course of the war! I don't care about the war anymore, I care about Roy!::Capt. Keith Mallory: And if Turkey comes into the war on the wrong side?::Corporal Miller: So what? Let the whole bloody world come in and blow itself to pieces, that's what it deserves!

Commodore Jensen: Gentlemen, these men have a special interest in Navarone. I got your radio report, but I thought perhaps you could be more specific.::Squadron Leader Howard Barnsby RAAF: I'll be specific! As you can plainly see, it was ruddy awful. But we'd love to go back. Wouldn't we, boys?::[His boys give several loud cheers]::Squadron Leader Howard Barnsby RAAF: Just as soon as we can! BUT - we've got one condition. We want the joker who thought this one up to come with us. And when we get there, we're gonna shove him out at ten thousand feet - without a parachute.
