Quotes from

Lt. Johnson: Mr. Anderson, if you can sit in the middle of this war and not get touched, I congratulate you.


Charlie Anderson: Do you like her?
Lt. Sam: Well, I just said I...
Charlie Anderson: No, no. You just said you loved her. There's some difference between lovin' and likin'. When I married Jennie's mother, I-I didn't love her - I liked her... I liked her a lot.

You see, Sam, when you love a woman without likin' her, the night can be long and cold, and contempt comes up with the sun.

Boy Anderson: Down by the creek, sir.
Charlie Anderson: Some fella down there handing out hats?
