Jonas: You been training for this moment your entire life. The universe has been conspiring, if you think about it, to put you right here, right now. Off you go, we're all waitin' on ya. Molly Blane: [to Kim, who has packed her car to leave the base] You say you love him. Now are you brave enough to act on it? Here you are, a pretty little girl - fine daughter - a child on the way, a man in combat. You're frightened, and you want him home. This is not your own special circumstance. You know what this is? It is the history of the world. You want to think about that for a moment. Kim: Army regulations state... Molly: You aren't in the Army. You're in the Unit. Jonas: This is my house, here, which means that's your house, there. Bob: I don't even have a key. Jonas: Well, there's not much crime in this neighborhood.

Bob: My waffle shirt... Kim: It's coming. Bob: You sent it on the truck. Kim: Most of the things we shipped. Kim: I gave you one child, I'm carrying another - presumably yours - so don't take that attitude! Molly: "Is my husband happy in his work?" Well, you know the problem is stress, but the stress is mine. (Dr. Willey hands Molly a photograph) Molly: What we have here - this a photograph of a broken mirror. Dr. Willey: And you're saying that some stressed out person fired those two shots into the mirror. Molly: Yes, I did. Dr. Willey: You fired those shots. Molly: Yes I did. Dr. Willey: At a rat. Molly: At a rat, yes. Dr. Willey: And you missed the rat, but you grouped two shots - .45 pistol, two shot group, both in the kill zone, with your husband's pistol. Molly: My husband's pistol, yes.

Susan: I have a job to do. Jonas: I want you to postpone it. Susan: Why should I? Jonas: [Takes a card from his pocket and writes his number down] Take this card. Hold on to it. Susan: What is that? Jonas: No matter how blessed our lives, how charmed our existence, things still, inevitably, irrevocably, go wrong. Your mother is swindled out of her savings. Your estranged husband runs off with your kids. Your best friend goes on vacation in a foreign land and disappears. Eventually, bad things find us all. You ever hear of the Get-Out-Of-Jail-Free card? This is a Get-Out-of-Hell card. At some point in your life, God forbid, you have no where else to turn, call that number. That is why you are going to postpone your job. Susan: Two hours.

Molly: How many, ya think? Jonas: She bring laundry? Molly: Mm-hmm... Jonas: Set for three. Molly: You gonna talk to her? Jonas: Said she'd talk to me. I imagine that's what she'll do. Molly: And you'll "daddy" her up, but you won't put it to her. Molly: Then show me what you're gonna do. Jonas: Be careful... Even the dumbest of generals wouldn't start a two-front war. Bob: (pointing to a picture of the target) He reminds me of someone. Jonas: Does he. Bob: My wife's grandad, maybe. What does that make him, my grandfather-in-law? Jonas: Did grandfather-in-law ever bomb a busload of schoolchildren? Bob: Not that I know of. Jonas: That's one big difference, then.

Iranian Security Agent: What's permitted to others is not permitted to you. Jonas: The injunction of the Roman Legionnaire. Iranian Security Agent: Ah! I see I've found a fellow scholar. Jonas: No, just another old soldier. Iranian Security Agent: Well it's better than civilian life. Jonas: As what is not? Jonas: And what precaution have we ever found unnecessary? Iranian Security Agent: Which is why we two old soldiers may be fated to die in bed Jonas: Now wouldn't that be a hell of a thing. Iranian Security Agent: (talking to Jonas) Goodbye my friend. I trust we kept you occupied. It was hard to distract an old warrior, but I succeeded. I enjoyed our time together. Sometimes you win. Sometimes you lose.
