When the jive talking N Y street hood was trying to rob Crocodile Dundee. "Nah, that's not a knife, this is a knife". That's when he pulls the Bowie knife out of his waistband.

(Dundee calmly grabs a snake that's sliding down behind him, wrings its neck, and tosses it aside.)

"W-w-w-hat kind of snake was that?"

"Oh, a King Brown."

"Are they poisonous?"

"Oh, yeah, deadly. Not bad eatin', but alway give me gas..."

---

(from memory so probably not accurate)

"How about some roast Gowana lizard?"

"You actually eat that?"

"Well, you can live on it, but it tastes like s**t." (opens a can of Spaghettos.)

Not the movie, but the book basis for the movie THE ALAMO. Gen. Cos, a man of some honor in command of the first brigade that led the attack, lamented their heavy losses, "We brought 800 of the finest soldiers to this place, and we left 650 of them dead on the ground". The great General his majesty Antonio Lopez de Santa Anna, replied, "No matter, it is a small affair".

One I liked from "We Were Soldiers."

Lt. Colonel Hal Moore: I wonder what was going through Custer's mind when he realized that he'd led his men into a slaughter?

Sergeant Major Basil Plumley: Sir, Custer was a kittie. You ain't.

Steve reminds me of the movie about Custer, don't recall if that is the title. The 7th calvary employed a couple of Indian scouts, perhaps Crows who were enemies of the Souix and Cheyene. They have found the trail of the Indians and see the hoofprints of many horses. Then they are looking out across a valley to the Indian camp and notice that there are so many young warriors that there isn't room fo all of them in the tepees so they have built many small shelters, wickiups. Custer doesn't want to hear any bad news(sound familar today?) and says he can't see them and the scouts are mistaken. The scout, "Does Custer think we have white man eyes?" Then as Custer plans to attack, the scouts then begin go through their rituals, saying "Tomorrow will be a good day to die."

From the movie "Angela's Ashes":

"When I look back on my childhood I wonder how my brothers and I managed to survive at all. It was, of course, a miserable childhood. The happy childhood is hardly worth your while. Worse than the ordinary miserable childhood is the miserable Irish chidlhood. And worse yet is the miserable Irish Catholic childhood."

Great book & movie!
