- Willis Powell: Grow up General. Nobody honors nothin', but that's no reason to blow up the whole world.
- Willis Powell: Just wanted you to know General, win or lose, you're some motherfucker.
- Lawrence Dell: Thank you.
- Brig. Gen. O'Rourke: Like the late Great Houdini said, the buck stops here! You live here, Mr. President! So you must go!
- President David T. Stevens: You prick! I should have got rid of you when I had the chance!
- Brig. Gen. O'Rourke: Yes, sir.
- President David T. Stevens: Well, everybody's got to go sometimes - so I guess I better get going. No-one lives forever.
- Brig. Gen. O'Rourke: Yes, sir!
- President David Stevens: You asshole! Dell's bluffing, huh? He doesn't have the keys, huh? He can't launch, huh? Well take a look MacKenzie and tell me those aren't fucking missiles!
- Willis Powell: I had Brothers in my platoon that could shoot a rat in his butthole a quarter of a mile away! So you know they got snipers out there waiting for us. Probably midget ones too that's why we can't see them or didn't see them.
- Gen. Lawrence Dell: Midgets? There ain't no midgets in the United States Air Force
- Willis Powell: man f*** the Air Force! They got to be Mafia! Which is the same thing anyways.
