    Radar O'Reilly: "Because they're under 'B' for 'boom'."
  • Hawkeye Pierce: "I'd like a dry martini, Mr. Quoc, a very dry martini. A very dry, arid, barren, desiccated, veritable dustbowl of a martini. I want a martini that could be declared a disaster area. Mix me just such a martini."
  • Hawkeye Pierce: "I will not carry a gun, Frank. When I got thrown into this war I had a clear understanding with the Pentagon: no guns. I'll carry your books, I'll carry a torch, I'll carry a tune, I'll carry on, carry over, carry forward, Cary Grant, cash and carry, carry me back to Old Virginia, I'll even 'hari-kari' if you show me how, but I will not carry a gun!"
  • Hawkeye Pierce, to B.J. Hunnicutt, who is reading "Medical Dialogue" at six in the morning: "I'll save you the trouble, I know how it ends: Peter Pancreas marries the princess... Pelvis. They have a couple of kidneys, and they all liver happily ever after."
