- Pvt. Isabelle 'Dizzy' Flores: There's nothing like a bug hunt to get your juices flowing!
- Cpl. Jeff Gossard: So, what do you do to relax, Flores? Bungee jump without the cord?
- Pvt. Isabelle 'Dizzy' Flores: Hey! No guts, no glory.
- Pvt. Johnny Rico: [mutters to Jenkins] No brains.
- Pvt. Carl Jenkins: No kidding.
- Pvt. Carl Jenkins: [Observing the battlefield on Pluto] They never mentioned this in the commercials.
- Pvt. Johnny Rico: I think we should sue.
- Pvt. Johnny Rico: [after arriving back to base from destroying a bug-built mountain on Buenos Aires] Diz, I think we should talk.
- Pvt. Isabelle 'Dizzy' Flores: About what? Oh, about you being in love with me. Well, you can't be.
- Pvt. Johnny Rico: What's that supposed to mean?
- Pvt. Isabelle 'Dizzy' Flores: I'm a jinx, plain and simple. Bad stuff always happen to the people I'm in love with.
- Pvt. Johnny Rico: That's ridiculous!
- Pvt. Isabelle 'Dizzy' Flores: Do you want a list? Let's start off with my family, gone. Thought I had feelings for Carl? Whoops, his brain got fried! Zander? Turned into a bug!
- Pvt. Johnny Rico: There's one flaw in your theory, Diz.
- Pvt. Isabelle 'Dizzy' Flores: What's that?
- Pvt. Johnny Rico: Me. You're in love with me, and nothing bad has happened.
- Pvt. Isabelle 'Dizzy' Flores: Well, I'm not in love with you anymore! That's why you're safe.
- Pvt. Johnny Rico: Diz, I'm not going to let you do this. I won't just walk away!
- Pvt. Isabelle 'Dizzy' Flores: Sergeant! You outrank me, remember? I believe that SICON command would deem that this sort of behavior is wholly inappropriate.
- Pvt. Johnny Rico: Fine, Private. I'm sorry if I went out of line. This will never happen again.
- Pvt. Johnny Rico: [after getting the order to bring a marauder suit up a mountain and hearing the consequences of the damage to the suit] What comes from nothing is nothing
- Sgt. Francis Brutto: What was that?
- Pvt. Johnny Rico: Nothing!
- Pvt. Johnny Rico: [after being given the order to complete a mission on Klendathu] What happened to "The Roughnecks never leave a man behind? "
- Lt. Jean Razak: That's the advantage of being the boss. You don't have to follow your own orders.
- Pvt. Johnny Rico: [after saving Carmen after she crashlands on Klendathu] Expecting Prince Charming?
- Lt. Carmen Ibanez: What? No white horse?
- Pvt. Johnny Rico: [when being on a retrieval ship after saving Echo Squad on Hydora] Diz, when we get back to the Valley Forge, you should take it easy. I'll pick up your meals and stuff.
- Pvt. Isabelle 'Dizzy' Flores: Rico, when we get back to the Valley Forge, do me one big favor. Go back to being a jerk. I like you better that way.
- [Ibanez is shooting at a hole in the cave to give out signal for any of the Roughnecks to find them. Rico wakes up from the gunfire]
- Pvt. Johnny Rico: Hey, keep it down here, I'm trying to get some shut-eye.
- Lt. Carmen Ibanez: Rico!
- Pvt. Johnny Rico: What are you doing?
- Lt. Carmen Ibanez: I'm trying to use your laser to send up a flare. They have to be looking for us right now.
- Pvt. Johnny Rico: Hold off. You're almost out of juice, and the laser will show up better once it's dark.
- Lt. Carmen Ibanez: I refuse to die in such a stupid way!
- Pvt. Johnny Rico: There's no such thing as a smart way.
- [the Roughnecks start to head back to the retrieval ship after saving Rico]
- Lt. Jean Razak: Private, you disobeyed a direct order and almost got yourself killed! That is not acceptable in my squad, do you get me?
- Pvt. Johnny Rico: Sir, I get you, sir.
- Lt. Jean Razak: [whispers softly referring to Rico attempting to kill a Tanker bug to save Jenkins, Flores, Higgins, and Razak] Pretty gutsy, son.
- [after killing the bugs posing as humans when retrieving a poison serum for Lieutenant Razak]
- Pvt. Johnny Rico: How did you know they were fake?
- Pvt. Isabelle 'Dizzy' Flores: Woman's intuition.
