Quotes
Bodie: Play around with bombs, you get blown up.
Doyle: Cynic.
Bodie: Pragmatist.
Doyle: I must look that up.
Cowley: [to Colonel Lin Foh] You want to kill each other, go home and do it. Not here.
Cowley: No vendettas, Bodie, no revenge. Whatever happens to Doyle, it was his job — comes with the job.
Bodie: Yeah — bein' a target for some maniac political assassin.
Bodie: He'll make it.
Cowley: Will he? Does he want to? How strong's his will?
Bodie: The strongest.
Cowley: I'm not so sure. He's an idealist — as much as anyone can be, given the job he does.
Bodie: Give Ray half a chance, he'd blame himself for the invention of gunpowder.
Cowley: Have you ever thought of getting out?
Bodie: Yeah — every time I take a physical. Still, what else would I do?
Cowley: What would you do?
Bodie: I haven't thought that far, Sir.
