It's a bird. The phoenix was a mythical bird that burnt itself to ashes and rose...  This is a quote thread for "The Flight of the Phoenix" (1965). |

This place I was at last year, there's this bint. Farida or something. She did a sort of a dance. You should have seen it. I've woken up a few nights in a cold sweat thinking about it, I can tell you.  |

Tell you what though, if ever we do get out of here alive...and I get my leave, I'm going to stay put in Benghazi. And fix myself up with one of them Arab bints. That's not all you'll fix yourself up with in Benghazi. I've been there, mate.  |

That's just a local station relaying a political broadcast. I don't think you'll find any stations we'd want until nightfall.  |

What's wrong? That's a good coat. It cost me 50 bucks in Marseilles. It'd cost more than 100 in the States.  |

Insurance companies move in mysterious ways. Much like God... only far less generous.  |

Mr. Towns, you behave as if stupidity were a virtue. Why is that?  |

You told Towns he was behaving as if stupidity was a virtue. If he's making it into a virtue, YOU'RE MAKING IT INTO A BLOODY SCIENCE!  |

I wouldn't march ten paces from here. In the daytime it's hitting a hundred and twenty in the shade, and out there, there is no shade.  |

If you marched a hundred and six miles by the stars and your calculations were just one per cent out, you could pass the Eiffel Tower in daylight and never even see it.  |

That pilot, I would have thought he was a little elderly to be flying without a copilot. Wouldn't you?  |
