- Cmdr. Charles Sturm: [to Lt Sempter] It must be a happy thing to look like you do. I suppose women love you. I've never had that. Must be a happy thing.
- Diana Sturm: And what about the gallant commander? You were about to give me a piece of your mind.
- Hutton: I was about to do no such thing - I don't attack women.
- Diana Sturm: Except behind their backs?
- Lt. Sempter: Do you want to go home?
- Diana Sturm: No.
- Lt. Sempter: Well, then - What do you want?
- Diana Sturm: I want never to have been born.
- Lt. Sempter: What are you doing?
- Diana Sturm: I'm buying and billiard cue.
- Lt. Sempter: What for?
- Diana Sturm: I want a billiard cue.
- Diana Sturm: Men can be very spiteful when they're hurt, can't they?
- Lt. Sempter: I'm sorry, I didn't mean to be spiteful. But I am hurt.
- Diana Sturm: [after ducking into a shop to hide from Lt. Sempter] I want one of these things.
- Shopkeeper: A billiard cue, very good. Do you like a light one or a heavy one?
- Diana Sturm: Oh, medium.
- Lt. Sempter: Why don't you tell me all about it?
- Diana Sturm: There is magic out here. Do you want to kill it?
- Cmdr. Charles Sturm: [opening lines] You dropped this.
- [hands Jaeckel a letter]
- Lt. Jaeckel: [embarrassed] Oh. Thank you sir.
- Cmdr. Charles Sturm: From my wife.
- Lt. Jaeckel: Yes, sir.
- Cmdr. Charles Sturm: I recognised the handwriting.
- Lt. Jaeckel: Yes, it's just a note, telling me that...
- Cmdr. Charles Sturm: That's alright, my boy - you don't have to explain. I'm a husband, not a jailer.
- Lt. Jaeckel: I know sir, it was only about dinner last night.
- Cmdr. Charles Sturm: My friend, this isn't the Middle Ages. A woman can write letters to whom she pleases, can't she?
- Diana Sturm: Goodbye.
- Lt. Sempter: Are you going to leave me?
- Diana Sturm: Yes I think so.
- Lt. Sempter: Where are you going?
- Diana Sturm: I don't know.
- Lt. Sempter: Then I'm going there too.
- Diana Sturm: You'll find me bad company.
- Lt. Sempter: I'll take a chance.
