Silver Streak - Dining Experience on the Silver Streak
Devereau:
The Silver Streak does have its drawbacks, but please try the marmalade. They do provide an excellent cuisine.
Grover:
Oh, thank you, sir. I'll tell the boys in the kitchen. We aims to please. Coffee, miss?
Hilly:
No, thanks.
Grover:
He ain't bullshittin about the cuisine.
Devereau:
Steward?
Grover:
Is that your lady, man? She's somethin else.
Devereau:
Steward!
Grover:
Stand up, mama. Let me get a look at you.
Devereau:
Steward!
Grover:
Mm, mm, mm! Have mercy!
Devereau:
Steward, you may go.
Grover:
Just a little more coffee?
Devereau:
No, thank you.
Grover: [pours coffee in Devereau's lap]
Half a cup? Oh, sorry, sir. Look what I've done.
Devereau:
You... Get out of...
Grover:
See what I've done...
Devereau:
You ignorant nigger!
Grover: [pulling a gun]
Who you callin nigger, huh? You don't know me well enough to call me no nigger! I'll slap the taste out your mouth! You don't even know my name! I'll whoop your ass! Beat the white off your ass!
Hilly:
Who are you?
Grover:
I'm a thief.
George:
It's all right, Hilly. He's a friend of mine.
Hilly:
Hello.
Grover:
Hi.
Hilly:
Hi.
Grover:
So this is Mister Big?
George:
That's the man.
Grover: [to Devereau]
You ain't saying shit now, Mister Big.
Devereau:
I must admit that I'm slightly at a loss for words. But on the other hand, I should warn you that you are a killer and you are wanted by the police in every state and I recommend that you, uh, be careful.
George Caldwell: [points the gun at Devereau]
You're the killer who's wanted by the police in every state. That man you had shot wasn't a vitamin salesman, he was a federal agent. They've been after you for two years, ever since that plane crash in Cologne, Germany, when you caused a hundred people to die just to cover up your link with the scandal at the Metropolitan Gallery. So why don't we get them the proof that they wanted? Let's go and get the Rembrandt letters. Get up.
Roger Devereau:
If you insist.

Ice Station Zebra - Identity and Deception in Code Names
David Jones:
Jones. Bad name. Bad connotations. I once killed a man called Jones. Though not for that reason, of course.
Cmdr. Ferraday:
That's not your name?
David Jones:
Isn't that obvious? It's a - it's a code cover name. Brilliant deception, don't you think? Jones.

Cmdr. Ferraday:

David Jones:
I know how to wreck them, and I know how to lie, steal, kidnap, counterfeit, suborn and kill. That's my job. I do it with great pride.

Ice Station Zebra - Submarine Safety and Deception Explained
Cmdr. Ferraday:
There's one thing that cannot happen on board a submarine by accident... is both ends of a torpedo tube open to the sea at the same time!
David Jones:
You cross-connect the hydraulic manifold to the outside door mechanism so that the indicator reads shut when the door is actually open. The same sort of electrical cross on these two panels, and the open position reads green when it should flash red. Then you plug up the inlet to the test cock with chewing gum, sealing wax, anything... just so that it shows a dribble. And then you open the tube, and good night.

Ice Station Zebra - The Nature of Danger in Harsh Environments
David Jones:
Where were you stationed, Captain, before you were picked up in transit?
Capt. Leslie Anders:
Asia
David Jones:
Ah, then you haven't been on the ice before either.
Capt. Leslie Anders:
No, Sir. A bullet goes just as fast up here as it does down there.
David Jones:
Not quite. An insignificant difference, perhaps, but I think you'll find the operational characteristics of the M-16 indicate that a bullet will decelerate as much as 40 feet per second per second faster in these climate conditions. It's denser air, you know.

A Time to Kill - Legal Dilemmas in a Courtroom Drama
Carl Lee Hailey:
Ask if he thinks I should go to jail.
Jake Tyler Brigance:
Carl Lee, they amputated his leg because you shot him. He's the prosecution's witness.
Carl Lee Hailey:
You're my lawyer ain't ya? Ask him.
Jake Tyler Brigance:
Your Honor, one question.
Judge Omar Noose:
Make up your mind, Mr. Brigance.
Jake Tyler Brigance:
Deputy Looney, do you think Carl Lee shooting you was intentional?
Deputy Dwayne Powell Looney:
No sir. It was an accident.
Carl Lee Hailey:
Ask him!
Jake Tyler Brigance:
Do you think he should be punished for shooting you?
Deputy Dwayne Powell Looney:
No, sir. I hold no ill will toward the man. He did what I would have done.
Jake Tyler Brigance:
What do you mean by that?
Deputy Dwayne Powell Looney:
I mean, I don't blame him for what he did. Those boys raped his little girl.
D.A. Rufus Buckley:
Objection, your Honor! The witness's opinion on this matter is irrelevant.
Jake Tyler Brigance:
Your Honor, I believe Deputy Looney has earned the right to speak here today.
Judge Omar Noose:
Overruled. Continue.
Jake Tyler Brigance:
Go ahead, Dwayne.
Deputy Dwayne Powell Looney:
I got a little girl. Somebody rapes her, he's a dead dog. I'll blow him away just like Carl Lee did.
D.A. Rufus Buckley:
Objection your Honor!
Jake Tyler Brigance:
Do you think the jury should convict Carl Lee Hailey?
Judge Omar Noose:
Don't answer that question.
Deputy Dwayne Powell Looney:
He's a hero. You turn him loose.
Judge Omar Noose:
The jury will disregard...
Deputy Dwayne Powell Looney:
Turn him loose!
D.A. Rufus Buckley:
Your honor, you silenced that witness!
Deputy Dwayne Powell Looney:
You turn him loose!
