Reynolds You've got a fine handsome boil, my friend. There's one glistening boil for every soldier in Africa. You may not win any medals on this campaign, but you'll certainly get more boils. For every gunshot wound I probe, I expect to lance three boils.
Hook Uh, a spot of medicinal brandy would set me up, sir.
Reynolds Brandy's for heroes, Mr. Hook. The rest of you will make do with boils in your skin, flies in your meat, and dysentery in your bellies. Now - this will hurt you a lot more than it will me, I'm happy to say.
Maxfield Pick up the rifle, Hook. And get to it! I'll make a soldier of you yet.
Hook And what for? Did I ever see a Zulu walk down the City Road? No! So what am I doing here?
Maxfield You're here because you were a liar, a coward, and a thief. Now you can be a soldier- like what they pay you for.
