Col. Jessep: You see Danny, I can deal with the bullets, and the bombs, and the blood. I don't want money, and I don't want medals. What I do want is for you to stand there in that faggoty white uniform and with your Harvard mouth extend me some fuck...
Lt. Weinberg: "I strenuously object?" Is that how it works? Hm? "Objection." "Overruled." "Oh, no, no, no. No, I STRENUOUSLY object." "Oh. Well, if you strenuously object then I should take some time to reconsider."
Lt. Weinberg: Why do you like them so much? Galloway: Because they stand on a wall and say, "Nothing's going to hurt you tonight, not on my watch."
Capt. West: Commander Galloway, why don't you get yourself a cup of coffee. Galloway: Thank you, sir, I'm fine. Capt. West: Commander, I'd like you to leave the room so we can talk about you behind your back. Galloway: Certainly, sir.
Kaffee: Oh, hah, I'm sorry, I keep forgetting. You were sick the day they taught law at law school.
Col. Jessep: I run my unit how I run my unit. You want to investigate me, roll the dice and take your chances. I eat breakfast 300 yards from 4000 Cubans who are trained to kill me, so don't think for one second that you can come down here, flash a b...
Kaffee: [Stops Dawson as he is leaving the courtroom] Harold. Dawson: Sir? Kaffee: You don't need to wear a patch on your arm to have honor. Dawson: Ten-hut! [salutes] Dawson: There's an officer on deck.

Galloway: You put him on the stand and you get it from him! Kaffee: Oh, we get it from him! Yes! No problem! We get it from him. [turns to Sam as if he were Jessup on the stand] Kaffee: Colonel Jessup, isn't it true that you ordered the Code Red on S...
Kaffee: How's it going, Luther? Luther: Another day, another dollar, captain. Kaffee: You gotta play them as they lay. Luther: What goes around comes around. Kaffee: Can't beat 'em, join 'em. Luther: At least I got my health. Kaffee: Well, then you g...
Lt. Col. Matthew Andrew Markinson: [voice over, as we see Markinson putting on his full class A dress uniform. It is his suicide note] Dear Mr. and Mrs. Santiago, I was William's executive officer. I knew your son vaguely, which is to say I knew his ...
Lt. Weinberg: Cmdr. Galloway, Lt. Kaffee is considered to be the best litigator in our office. He successfully plea bargained 44 cases in 9 months. Kaffee: One more and I get a set of steak knives.
Kaffee: Is the colonel's underwear a matter of national security?
Kaffee: Maybe, if we work at it, we can get Dawson charged with the Kennedy assassination.
Kaffee: Anyway, since we seem to be out of witnesses, I thought I'd drink a little. Galloway: I still think we can win. Kaffee: Maybe you should drink a little.
Kaffee: Why does a Lieutenant Junior Grade with nine months' experience and a track record for plea bargaining get assigned to a murder case? Would it be so it never sees the inside of a courtroom?
Galloway: The doctor's wrong. Kaffee: What a relief. I was afraid I wouldn't be able to use the liar-liar-pants-on-fire defense.
