DEAR EARTH

McQueen to Hawkes:
"What are you waiting here for, Hawkes? A letter from Ma and Pa saying how proud they are?
Mail call's no place for tanks."

McQueen and Ross:
McQueen: "I do my part in everyday actions."
Ross: "Just think of it as going into battle, and you'll be fine."

Vansen:
"I don't wanna be a captain, I just want to use the phone!"

West to Ross:
"Proper Corps procedure is not good enough for my brother, sir."

Private Seale(?), Wang and Damphousse:
Seale: "Lt. Wang! Your boots."
Wang: "Thank God! They look great! What was on them, anyhow?"
Seale: "Chig-dung. Sir, you stepped in an enemy latrine."
Damphousse: "Oh man... And they still stink!"
Wang: "You know? They are softer..."

McQueen and West to Captain Vansen at the ceremony:
McQueen: "Congratulations, Vansen. You deserve it."

PEARLY

McQueen:
"There's our ride out."

Feliciti OH to Elroy EL:
"Can't you kill somebody for once without the theatrics?"

Sergeant First Class Louie Fox of the 7th Cavalry:
"From Custer's last stand to here, if there's a massacre, we're in it".

Hawkes, Fox and McQueen about Pearly:
Hawkes: "Looks like you and your APC are out of simpatico."
Fox: "Tank!"
McQueen: "No need to get ugly, sergeant."
Fox: "Pearly is not an armored personnel carrier, she's a tank. You call her an APC one more time,
I'll use your guts to grease her treads."

Major MacKendrick to McQueen:
"You have women traveling with you?"

Sergeant Louie Fox:
"Pearly, what can I write that hasn't already been said?
I never understood those techno obsessed geeks that cared more about their computers than a human being,
but on this day, when my crew, my friends, four lives were lost, you saved mine.
It gets me mad that there is no way to repay you for this except to change you power cells when you're low and keep you supplied with frags when you're out, and grease your treads when you feel like you can't go on.
I have never been able to trust anyone, believe in something as much as you.
I know you're only a tank and all but I feel like you believe in me."

Damphousse:
"Come on, Pearly. Who loves you, huh? You know it's me, baby."

Damphousse:
"That weirds me out on so many different levels."

Elroy EL to Wang:
"Wang, Paul. You have done a very bad thing. You took the battery.
And now my sweet Feliciti belongs to the ages... And so will you."

Ross to the 58th:
"On board a ship like Bacchus, it's tempting to try and lose yourself. Don't."

McQueen:
"There'll be plenty of time to rest when I'm dead."

life in the Bacchus is a hands on experience."

"Hey guys, AMF!"

"Do you know who Clint Eastwood is? Do ya?"

Handsome Alvin to Vansen:

Shouldn't let a couple of rotten apples spoil it for the whole bunch of us..."

"That's what you get for coming to my house and shooting your mouth better than you do the balls..."

McQueen:
"It ain't a fit night out for man nor beast."

Damphousse to Wang:
"I had this really weird thing happening in the club... I saw you dancing with that girl
but I didn't recognize you because of your new clothes and... I thought 'oh, look at that guy...'.
And then, of course, I got all embarrassed when I realized it was you."

Damphousse and Wang:
Damphousse: "You weren't looking at the match..."
Wang: "I probably should be..."

Damphousse to Wang:
"Can I get you two a room?"

Wang: "So you don't know what's going on?"

when we tead together this morning."

Vansen to the 58th:
"Now, don't look when I say this, but...."
