Ship of Fools Quotes

Seeking Support and Belief in Uncertainty

David: Look, I need all the help I can get. I need someone who can believe in a man who hasn't proven himself yet. Someone to be there. To be for me.

Reflections on Life and Death

Dr. Wilhelm Schumann: When I had my heart attack, there was a dream I had. You can talk about death - I've seen it many times as a doctor - but you never know what it's like until it happens to you... I dreamt I had already died.

Capt. Thiele: Who has?
