Dan Torrance
- Dan: Kitty, I want you to know something. I want you to know that every woman I kissed, every woman I held, every woman I caressed... every time I went to the Ajax Motel I was always thinking of you.
- Kitty Baxter: Don't say it if it isn't true.
- Dan: That's why I chased them all, Kitty, why I bedded them all. It was to think of you.
- Kitty Baxter: But why didn't you bed *me* to think of me?
- Dan: I don't know. But the important thing is... for the rest of my life I only want to bed you - and think of them.
- Claude Crane: Captain, we need you to marry us.
- Dan Torrance: WHAT?
- Sybil Crane: We need you to marry us.
- Claude Crane: We realized we never should've gotten divorced.
- Dan Torrance: How long you been divorced?
- Claude Crane: Six hours.
- Dan Torrance: Give it a chance!
- Goldie: Drink up and get out, Torrence, we don't want your kind around here.
- Dan: Who's 'we', Goldie? Is that how you feel, Whitey? What about you, Blackie? Come on, speak up! I see you in the back there, Red. What about you guys: Pinky, Greenie, Brownie? We all started out as rookies together.
- Goldie: Men like you give busing a bad name, we all remember Mount Diablo!
- Dan: You know damn well there were never any charges brought against me.
- Goldie: When that bus crashed and you were lost in the mountains, we all know what really happened. There's only one way you could've stayed alive.
- Dan: I don't care what anybody says, I did not eat 110 passengers.
- Goldie: Before the crash you weighed 180, when they found you picking your teeth, you weighed 237. Explain that.
- Dan: I ate the seats! I ate the luggage! I boiled the floor mats just like they taught us!
- Goldie: How come there was no trace of passengers?
- Dan: My codriver ate them! Bendix was eating passengers left and right. I swear to God there was no way I could stop him, I was delirious with fever.
- Goldie: You didn't want to stop him! You yourself said you ate a foot!
- Dan: Look, Bendix made a stew, I had no idea there was a foot in it. You eat one lousy foot and they call you a cannibal.
- Dan: [at his father's grave] So Pop, I don't know what I'm gonna do, they're trying to run me out of the business, I can't get a job anywhere. Ever since Mount Diablo, they go around saying I ate 110 people. Could you imagine that? Did you ever see me eat anybody? I mean that's ridiculous, I never ate anybody, one foot, one lousy foot, I swear to God, that's it.
- Kitty Baxter: I guess the rumors are true, you're really on the skids.
- Dan: Are you kidding? You see this? The deluxe assortment! What the hell are you talking about?
- Kitty Baxter: Always the big show, the big lie, it's the only thing about you that's big, your heart sure isn't.
- Dan: Look, Kitty, what happened in Akron wasn't my fault. Lefty got sick, I had to take that express run.
- Kitty Baxter: You mean you wanted to run, to do anything but walk down the aisle with me. You just couldn't give up your little carhop, could you?
- Dan: Kitty, there was never anybody but you.
- Dan: I'm not leaving you this time, baby, I couldn't live without you.
- Kitty Baxter: You're not lying again, are you?
- Dan: Of course not.
- Kitty Baxter: Good, I just wanted to be sure.
- Dan: What do you mean?
- Kitty Baxter: [chuckles] I'm lying, my foot's been free for 10 minutes, let's go.
- Dan: Kitty, I want this big lug to be my co-driver.
- Kitty Baxter: Not so fast, Dan, not just anybody can handle Cyclops. No offense, Shoulders, but Ed Collins was our co-driver and he's a tough guy to replace.
- Dan: Yeah well don't you worry, Shoulders can fill his shoes.
- Kitty Baxter: I know, but can he fit into his uniform? Can you wear a 42 long?
- Professor Baxter: I usually...
- Dan: Can you?
- Kitty Baxter: Yes or not.
- Dan: Answer the woman!
- Professor Baxter: I usually take a 44.
- Kitty Baxter: I'm sorry, Shoulders, thanks for dropping by, Dan, I tried.
- Dan: Alright, Kitty, either he gets into Collins' pants, or I'm walking out of Briggs' shoes. Take it or leave it.
- Kitty Baxter: [pause] Alright, I'll take the risk.
- Dan: I'm coming, Kitty! Forgive me, Kitty. Forgive me for leaving you at the church! Forgive me for cheating on you with that carhop, with that switchboard operator, with that drum majorette. I lied about them all, Kitty, your best friend Toby, your cousin Brenda, your cousin Charlotte, your good looking aunt what's-her-name.
- Kitty Baxter: Dan! Turn off your intercom, you're killing me!
- Dan: Shit.
- Kitty Baxter: Aunt Florence, I'll kill her!
- Sybil Crane: You're gonna kill us, we're taking over the bus.
- Dan: So you want to take it over?
- Claude Crane: That's right.
- Dan: Well who the hell's gonna drive this thing? Huh? Come on, speak up! Who thinks they can handle this?
- Sybil Crane: [to Claude] Be a man, raise your hand you little lizard. He will.
- Dr. Kurtz: The lizard will.
- Dan: Oh he can, huh? Well let's just see if he can. You want to turn left, when do you signal? 50 feet? 100 feet? 600 feet? You come to an intersection, there's an ambulance, a police car, a fire truck, who has the right of way? Hospital zone, school zone, what's your speed limit? Alright, here's an easy one, you come to railroad tracks, what do you do?
- Sybil Crane: Open your doors!
- Claude Crane: Open your doors!
- Dan: When? Before, during or after? You don't know, do you? Well that's sad, pal, because you just killed everybody.
- Kitty Baxter: Nuclear reactor indicator?
- Dan: Upper right-hand console, amber light.
- Kitty Baxter: Nuclear reactor shutoff?
- Dan: Overhead control box, red toggle switch.
- Kitty Baxter: Nuclear... cigarette lighter?
- Dan: ...Above the nuclear windshield wipers.
- Kitty Baxter: Wrong! There is no nuclear cigarette lighter! Either you know this or you don't!
- Dan: What do you want from me? I've been up four nights with this stuff!
- [Dan is attempting to break the 90 mph wind barrier]
- Dan Torrance: [to Scotty] Topping off at 80! Heavy wind resistance!
- Scotty: Take her down, Dan. Take her down!
- Dan Torrance: Negative! There's only one way to find out what this baby can do!
- Scotty: [concerned] Don't be a fool. This is an order! Take her down!
- Dan Torrance: [yells] Negative! NEGATIVE! Here we go!
- [Dan watches the speedometer]
- Dan Torrance: 88... 89...
- [Reaching the 90 mph limit, the Big Bus emits a loud boom, then silence; Cyclops has broken the wind barrier record]
- Dan Torrance: [screams in joy] NINETY! No wind resistance! We did it! WE'RE BREAKING WIND AT 90!
- Scotty: [back at the Control Room] The aerodynamics work! He's breaking wind at 90!
- [crew is cheering]
- Scotty: We're going to make it, boys and girls! We're ahead of schedule!
