Capt. Bart Mancuso: Hang on, Jonesy. If I can get you close enough... can you track this sucker? Seaman Jones: Yes, sir. Now that I know what to listen for, I'll bag 'im. Capt. Bart Mancuso: [smiling] Carry on.
Capt. Bart Mancuso: How did you know that his next turn would be to starboard? Jack Ryan: I didn't. I had a 50/50 chance. I needed a break. Sorry. Capt. Bart Mancuso: That's all right, Mr Ryan. My Morse is so rusty, I could be sending him dimensions ...
Captain Ramius: We will pass through the American patrols, past their sonar nets, and lay off their largest city, and listen to their rock and roll... while we conduct missile drills.
Captain Davenport: What's he going to do, sail into New York, pop the hatch, and say "Here I am"? Jack Ryan: It might be just that simple, yes.
[Shootout in the missile room] Captain Ramius: Hey, Ryan, be careful what you shoot at. Most things in here don't react too well to bullets. Jack Ryan: Right. [Moves closer to enemy, who fires several shots at him] Jack Ryan: *I* have to be careful w...
Admiral Josh Painter: This business will get out of control. It will get out of control and we'll be lucky to live through it.
Captain Ramius: A great day comrades, we sail into history!
Bill Steiner: Hey I think someone just shot a torpedo at us! Capt. Bart Mancuso: No shit, Buckwheat, now get the hell out of here!
Captain Tupolev: We're going to kill a friend, Yvgeni. We're going to kill Ramius.
Seaman Jones: [Jonesy is teaching Beaumont] Hear it now? Beaumont: [resigned] No. Seaman Jones: Beaumont, at Caltech we used to do this in our sleep! You hear it now? Beaumont: Wait a minute... Seaman Jones: Uh oh... Beaumont: Disparaged surface clut...
Captain Davenport: They're pinging away with their active sonar like they're looking for something, but nobody's listening. Jack Ryan: What do you mean? Captain Davenport: Well, they're moving at almost forty knots. At that speed, they could run righ...
Poltical Officer Ivan Putin: [Reading from a book belonging to Ramius, quoting the Bible] And the seventh angel poured his bowl into the air, and a voice cried out from heaven, saying: "It is done." A man with your responsibilities reading about the ...
Flight Attendant: You know, if you do try and get some sleep, the flight will go a lot faster. Jack Ryan: I can never sleep on a plane. Turbulence. Flight Attendant: Pardon? Jack Ryan: Turbulence. Solar radiation heats the Earth's crust, warm air ris...
Jeffrey Pelt: I'll give you three days to prove your theory correct. After that... we'll have to hunt down Ramius and destroy him. Will you do it?
Ambassador Lysenko: It seems that the initial reports that one of our submarines was missing were not completely accurate. The submarine in question... is commanded by Captain Marko Ramius. Apparently he's suffered a kind of mental or nervous break d...
Jeffrey Pelt: I can't ask any of these characters to go. One, they don't believe in it. Two, they'd never stake their reputation on a hunch. Whereas you... Jack Ryan: ...are expendable. Jeffrey Pelt: Something like that.
[to himself, just before being lowered off a helicopter] Jack Ryan: Next time, Jack, write a goddamn memo.
Seaman Jones: COB, we don't have time for sea stories. I was just teaching Seaman Beaumont, here, the intracacies of modern sonar, now... Watson: [chuckling] Yea, and I ain't Chief Of the Boat, I'm actually Sheena, queen of the jungle!
