Quote from : A Bridge Too Far Movie

[final plans are being discussed]
Lt. Gen. Frederick Browning: Only the weather can stop us now.
General Stanislaw Sosaboski: Weather. What of the Germans, General Browning. Don't you think that if we know Arnhem is so critical to their safety that they might know it too?
Lt. General Frederick Browning: See here, General Sosaboski, I should think you would have more faith in Field Marshal Montgomery's plan.
General Stanislaw Sosaboski: Faith? I will tell you how much faith I have. I am thinking of asking for a letter from you stating that I was ordered to go on this mission in case my men are massacred.
Lt. General Frederick Browning: I see... I do see. Do you wish such a letter?
General Stanislaw Sosaboski: No... In the case of massacre: what difference will it make?
