Trooper Joe Roberts: We're all doing time. Even the screws.

SSgt. Williams: Don't talk back, you different-coloured bastard.

Trooper Joe Roberts: So what's the charge? Failing to obey an order? Or, drunk in charge of a cigarette lighter? Oh, you crazy bastard! You'd prop up dead men and inspect them if you was ordered to.
