Dwight Towers:
Well... how'd you recognize me?
Moira Davidson:
I love Americans. They're so naive.
Moira Davidson:
I wouldn't really mind... if you could forget entirely who I am... I don't like myself very much anyway.
Moira Davidson:
There isn't time. No time to love... nothing to remember... nothing worth remembering.
Peter:
You remember when we first met? It was on the beach. I thought you were everything I'd always wanted.
Mary:
I thought you were so underfed.
Mary:
It's all over now, isn't it?
Peter:
Yes, it's all over.

Mary:
God... God, forgive us. Peter, I think I'll have that cup of tea now.
Julian Osborne:

Morgan:
They pushed us too far! They didn't think we'd fight, no matter what they did!
Julian Osborne:
And they were wrong. We fought. We expunged them. And we didn't do such a bad job on ourselves.
Julian Osborne:
There was a choice. It was build the bombs, and use them - or risk the United States, the Soviet Union, and the rest of us, would find some way... to go on living.
Morgan:
[
scoffs] That's wishful thinking if ever I heard it.
Julian Osborne:
[
softly] I'm not against wishful thinking. Not now.
Julian Osborne:
I shouldn't drink, you know. I inevitably say something brilliant.
Dwight Towers:
[
about Julian] He's not doing well. He 's a little claustrophobia.
Lt. Sunderstrom:
