Sir Benjamin Dyce : [gesturing to Moonbase window] Look out there, all of you. What do you see?
Michel Lebrun : The Earth.
Sir Benjamin Dyce : And can you see your beloved France?
Michel Lebrun : Yes, not clearly...
Sir Benjamin Dyce : And can you see where France stops and Germany, Switzerland or anywhere else starts?
Michel Lebrun : Not with the naked eye...
Sir Benjamin Dyce : You cannot see that if the soil is as close to your face as this meaningless bit of cloth!
[throws mini-French flag to the floor]
Sir Benjamin Dyce : It is only on maps that the colour of one country is different from the colour of the next.
Michel Lebrun : There is nothing wrong with a man being proud of his own country.
Sir Benjamin Dyce : There is everything wrong with it!

Michel Lebrun : The fourteenth of July! And in Paris there will be singing and dancing in the streets and lots of wine - and here? Here we celebrate with reconstituted calves liver, synthetic potato and H14, a local lunar vegetable so disgusting that nobody's ever bothered to give it a name.
Bruno Bertoli : Well, at least there's wine, Michel.
Michel Lebrun : Oh, yes of course, we mustn't forget the wine. Château Mouton Caulder: add two packets of purple powder to five litres of recycled effluent and stir. I wouldn't find it all so revolting if I didn't know how it was made.
