• Lieutenant : All right listen. We got division of NVA moving up through the valley. At 1900 hours the big boy 52s are gonna be dropping the heavy stuff just outside of the tree line where they'll be coming from. Now, you guys stay here in your foxhole, you pull your helmets down to your boots and don't move until I come back. You understand? Don't move!

  Soldier : [to Dodger]  A division? How many is that?

  Dodger : Too many.

• Dodger : You don't understand. It's beautiful. Ghosts escape from Hell. I love it. I... beat a man to death with my bare hands. His blood was all over me. It smelled sweet... grape jelly on the stove of my grandmother's house.

  [laughs] 

  Dodger : I don't feel guilty, I feel great. I made it, they're dead.

  [Pants] 

  Dodger : I'm alive. I'm alive!

  [Punches wall] 

• [last lines] 

  Dodger : [Hugging his infant son]  I'm alive.
