Reynolds
- Sara Lewis: Surely you're not saying that God is in favor of war?
- Captain Barrett: What do you think, Chaplain? Does God pick sides?
- Sara Lewis: Of course He would be on our side, wouldn't He?
- Reynolds: With so many men dying on both sides, I wonder if He favors either of us.
- Captain Barrett: There's a terrible paradox. War is the perfect expression of free will. Which is, of course, God's gift to us.
- Reynolds: And like most of His gifts, it is unappreciated and often misused.
- Townsend: As I recall, the Bible is filled with stories of God giving His blessing to men who fight for a just cause.
- Doctor Baker: Come now, Townsend. You do not believe all this senseless killing warrants God's approval?
- Townsend: Are you saying He does not approve of courage and sacrifice?
- Sara Lewis: I assure you, I would be willing to do my bit. I realize that, as a female, my options are limited. I shall have to content myself with being the woman behind the man.
- Reynolds: I would have killed you an hour ago if I had to.
- Vera Campbell: That's the difference between us. I hate you for what you've done, but I can't let you die.
- Reynolds: Without the support of our women at home I doubt we could win the war. Or even have one.
- Sara Lewis: Men start wars. Women clean up afterwards. If things were the other way around, there would be no more wars. I promise you that.
- Doctor Baker: It's one thing to die for a noble cause. What are we really fighting for? Arabia's oil? Mining rights to Africa?
- Reynolds: You mean this war is solely about the division of property?
- Captain Barrett: Now that sounds dangerously like socialism. And that's a dish we don't serve at this table.
- Reynolds: [Pointing a gun at Vera] I'm sorry. I didn't want any of this to happen.
- Doctor Baker: Is this what you meant by war being impersonal?
