View Quote Boon: Jesus Christ! What happened? You look grotesque!
Otter: Some of the Omegas did a little dance on my face.
Boon: Who was it?
Otter: It was Greggie and Douggie...and some of the other Hitler youth.

View Quote [to Donna] It's big. The biggest one here. You know what else? It's got a lot of range. You know what I mean by range, don't you? I mean, it can stay up for a long time. A very long time. And it's built firm and solid. Because it has to be. Because of its tremendous forward thrust. And when this baby delivers its payload... devastating.

View Quote Capt. Loomis Birkhead: Sir, you don't have any bombers here, do you, sir?
Col. "Madman" Maddox: Bombers? Son, if I had bombers I'd be bombin' the hell out of them right now!
[Maddox and his men start laughing madly]
Donna Stratton: [looking around; whispers to herself] No planes?
Capt. Loomis Birkhead: [to himself] Boy, am I in trouble now...
Col. "Madman" Maddox: [signals for the laughing to stop] Hell, son, the only plane I've got around here is that old shit on a shingle trainer sittin' right over there.
[soldiers pull down tarp to reveal an older plane; Donna's face lights up at the sight of it, as Loomis looks over to her for approval]
Donna Stratton: [nodding] It's fine, it's fine. Let's go!

View Quote Capt. Loomis Birkhead: [kneeling down as he spots Donna from a distance] Is that the general's new secretary?
Pvt. DuBois: Yeah, she just came in from HQ. Not bad, huh?
Capt. Loomis Birkhead: Not bad? She's a goddess, DuBois, a goddamn goddess! That is Donna Stratton! I knew her back in Washington. She has got this thing for planes.
Pvt. DuBois: One of those real high flying types, huh?
Capt. Loomis Birkhead: I've never seen anything like it... she's got planes on the brain!
...
Gen. Joseph W. Stilwell: [annoyed] Where's Birkhead? He's supposed to have my lunch.
Donna Stratton: [whistling, dreamy] B-17. Mmm...
[heads for the B-17 with a dreamy smile on her face]
Capt. Loomis Birkhead: No man has ever gotten to first base with her on the ground. But get her up in a plane, she'll bat your balls right out of the park.

View Quote Elizabeth: Annabelle, is that her name? Oh god, I didn't know that. All I know is what you did with her, on our sofa. Charles: Oh Lizzie, I'm sorry, I couldn't help myself. I've been smitten by Annabelle, I've been bewitched by her. I have been pounded flat on the anvil of love like a piece of veal with a salad on top.

View Quote Elizabeth: Charles, this is really important to me. Charles: Lizzie, lizzie, let's not go through all this goodbye, I never want to see you again, because we will wanna see each other again. I mean two years, we're not going to throw away two years, are we? Elizabeth: It was three years, in June.

View Quote Elizabeth: I heard you, you said Annabelle. Charles: If I said 'Oh, Annabelle' isn't it better that I said 'Oh Annabelle' and was here with you, than to say 'Oh, Lizzie' and be somewhere else with Annabelle.

View Quote Fletch: You know, I came this close to buying this place, but then I found out that Hop-along Cassidy killed himself here.
Alan Stanwyk: Who?
Fletch: Hop-along Cassidy. Bow and arrow. Very Weird.
Alan Stanwyk: What, are you doped up now?
Fletch: Don't talk to me like that, ass-face, I don't work for you, yet.

View Quote Alan Stanwyk: Do you own rubber gloves?
Fletch: I rent. I have a lease, with an option to buy.

View Quote Alan Stanwyk: If you reject the proposition, you keep the thousand - and your mouth shut.
Fletch: Does this proposition entail my dressing up as Little Bo Peep?
Alan Stanwyk: It's nothing of a sexual nature, I assure you.
Fletch: Yeah, I assure you.
Alan Stanwyk: One thousand just to listen. I don't see how you can pass that up, Mister...?
Fletch: Nugent. Ted Nugent.
Alan Stanwyk: Alan Stanwyk.
Fletch: Ellen? Charmed. You know, for an extra grand, I'll let you take me out to dinner...

View Quote Jonny: You mean when we blow those things up, all the bits and pieces will grow back into new ones?
4-DAC: Exactly.
Jessie: Then how would we ever destroy one?
4-DAC: There are two ways. Thermal nuclear explosion...
Hadji: [interrupting nervously] Let us rule that out for now.

View Quote 4-DAC: Greetings, young Jonny. I apologize if I startled you.
Jonny: You shouldn't sneak up behind people like that, 4-DAC.
Hadji: Yes, you were as quiet as a cobra.
4-DAC: Ah. Perhaps I should shut down and program myself to make footsteps.

View Quote 4-DAC: Though your plans seem sound on the surface, Dr. Zin, your logic is actually quite specious.
Dr. Zin: Specious?
4-DAC: Yes. Quite. Processing and storing large quantities of ethynol in this manner is extremely dangerous. You would be better advised to store it in closed containers.
Dr. Zin: Oh, shut up. [Zin hits 4-DAC, causing him to switch off]
Dr. Benton C. Quest: 4-DAC!
Dr. Zin: You know, Quest, your robot's most endearing feature is his off switch.
