Quotes

Back from Eternity

Edit
  • Jud Ellis: We're engaged, Louise. We'd a been married if this thing hadn't happened. Now, we, only a short time left.
  • Louise Melhorn: Please leave me alone.
  • Jud Ellis: Why should I? You're my girl!
  • Louise Melhorn: Don't Jud. Please, stop it!
  • Vasquel: Time passes and I find out that there was no belief. That was a loss of faith - in my fellow man. So. So, I don't know. Maybe I changed, maybe I did not changed. But, even if things were different, I don't think I have any desire to return to that - wonderful thing they called: civilization.
  • College Girl Photographer: Professor, we're from the school paper.
  • College Girl Journalist: We'd like to take a photograph. Would you mind stepping over by the gate, please?
  • Prof. Henry Spangler: Well, thank you.
  • Paul, Rena's 'Patron': You're on the move again, Rena. Pity your own country won't have you, Europe, now the United States. But, I found a brand new country for you. In South America. Hot there. But, they say blondes do well.
  • Pete Boswick: That's just it, boss. Why don't you get a woman here and send her instead of me?
  • Thomas J. Malone: Because I don't know any woman that carries a gun.
  • Joe Brooks: Captain said I was to help you with the passengers.
  • Maria Alvarez - Stewardess: Yes, that's the custom. It reassures them to see a man.
  • Pedro - Waiter: Will you have your especiale?
  • Bill Lonagan: You better make it a double especiale, Pedro.
  • Pedro - Waiter: ¡Sí Señor!
  • Louise Melhorn: What on earth is that man showing to that child?
  • Jud Ellis: That looks like a shrunken head.
  • Rena: Why did you advise me to get off here?
  • Bill Lonagan: Because I know Aunt Sophie and the Blue Moon Casino.
  • Rena: The what?
  • Bill Lonagan: Do you know what a Blue Moon girl does? Sits with the customers. Soft drinks at first and then she graduates to the hard stuff. It's a gay life and a short one.
  • Rena: I just thought, maybe, you had some problems. Like the ones I have.
  • Bill Lonagan: No. No problems. You see before you a man that's about to become a member of the idle rich. I'm going to be a sun dweller - on the prettiest stretch of beach you ever saw.
  • Rena: Florida?
  • Bill Lonagan: No. It's near Boca Grande. But, it's real quiet. I'm going to sit in the sand and listen to my beard grow.
  • Rena: How would you like a neighbor?
  • Bill Lonagan: No. No problems.
  • Bill Lonagan: Well, bless my buttons if it isn't Crimp.
  • Crimp: Oh, Miss. You're destination's the Blue Moon Casino, too.
  • Bill Lonagan: Yes.
  • Crimp: Well, I guess I just better take a look.
  • [Rena slaps Crimp]
  • Bill Lonagan: Say, surly. I like that!
  • Joe Brooks: We've formulated a plan. Shall I tell them?
  • Bill Lonagan: Yeah. Go ahead.
  • Joe Brooks: Well, I suppose we ought to let the ladies take care of the cooking. Mrs. Spangler, you'll be in charge.
  • Martha Spangler: Well, I'll be glad to do whatever I can.
  • Joe Brooks: And today the men will be split into two work groups.
  • Rena: It's a lot of work.
  • Louise Melhorn: How would you know?
  • Rena: What do you mean by that?
  • Louise Melhorn: I mean if you spent a little less time taking care of the pilots and a little more time working, we'd probably all be better off.
  • Prof. Henry Spangler: What do you think?
  • Vasquel: I think we're in grave danger, for this is headhunter territory.
  • Prof. Henry Spangler: Well, isn't there anything we can do?
  • Vasquel: No, my friend, there's nothing we can do. We can pray we get the plane fixed in time before the drums begin their war dance.
  • Prof. Henry Spangler: You mean they'll attack?
  • Vasquel: Sure. From their point of view, we are - invaders.
  • Vasquel: I believe in violence for violence sake.
