Jordan quotes from G.I. Jane (1997)

Jordan

How am I supposed to fit in with these guys when you've got me setup as an outsider? You've given me a different set of rules. The answer is, I can't. I mean really, why didn't you just issue me a pink petticoat to wear around the base?

Urgayle

Pain is your friend, your ally, it will tell you when you are seriously injured, it will keep you awake and angry, and remind you to finish the job and get the hell home. But you know the best thing about pain?

Jordan

Don't know!

Urgayle

It lets you know you're not dead yet!

DeHaven

Don't you even think of playing politics with me, little darlin', you'll be up way past your bedtime.

Jordan

And don't YOU think that I'll sit idly by while anyone smears my good name. Now you get those charges VOIDED, Senator. And you do it today!

DeHaven

Or what?

Jordan

You like pissed off? Watch this.
[storms out]

Urgayle

I don't know what the hell's been going on in the last 48 hours. And frankly I don't give a shit.

Jordan

Good to see you too, Master Chief.

Jordan

You were given the Navy Cross right? May I ask what you got it for?

Urgayle

Since it bears on this conversation, I got it for pulling a 250-pound man out of a burning tank.

Jordan

So stopping to save a man makes you a hero, but if a man stops to help a woman, he's gone soft?

Urgayle

Could you have pulled that man clear? Lieutenant, you couldn't even haul your own body weight out of the water today.

Jordan

I think you've resented me from the start, sir.

C.O. Salem

What I resent, Lieutenant, is some politician using my base as a test tube for her grand social experiment. What I resent, is the sensitivity training that is now mandatory for all of my men. The ob-gyn I now have to keep on staff just to keep track of your personal pap smears. But most of all what I resent, is your perfume, however subtle, interfering with the scent of my fine three-dollar-and-seventy-nine-cent cigar, which I will put out this instant if the phallic nature of it happens to offend your GODDAMN FRAGILE SENSIBILITIES! Does it?

Jordan

No, sir.

C.O. Salem

"No, sir" WHAT?

Jordan

The shape doesn't bother me. Just the goddamn sweet stench.

Blondell

Lieutenant, why are you doing this?

Jordan

Do you ask the men the same question?

Blondell

As a matter of fact: yes, I do ask them.

Jordan

And what do they say?

Blondell

"Cause I get to blow shit up."

Jordan

Well, there you go.

C.O. Salem

One standard.

Jordan

Just treat me the same. No better, no worse.

C.O. Salem

You're gonna get everything you want, O'Neil. I just wonder if you want what you're gonna get.

Jordan

Hoo-yah, sir.

Urgayle

Is there anything *else* we can do for your celebrity career, Lieutenant?

Jordan

That will be all...

Slovnik

Lemme get this straight. Now we're *sharing the same **** head*!

Jordan

Listen, you moron! I am here to stay and if you don't wanna be in my life, you've got two choices. Move out or Ring out! That's it! End of File!

Wickwire

I say you've got less than one minute to get your **** clothes on!

Cortez

You know O'Neil, I like you better when you drink.

Jordan

You know Cortez, I like you better when I drink.
