Rick: I didn't ask her to come here. McMurphy: She loves you. She thinks you're wonderful. Rick: She loves me… McMurphy: Yeah, she's getting over it. Rick: She loves me. She doesn't even know me. McMurphy: I'd say she figured that last night.

Dr. Richard: How do you feel? No, come on really, you can tell me, how do you feel? (Laurette tries to speak) Don't do that – bad for the throat.

Cherry: How could you find him so quickly? Dodger: I asked directions. I always say please.

McMurphy: You're back. Dr. Richard: What was your first clue?

Cherry: Is your brother really nasty? McMurphy: You got a brother. You know what that's like. Cherry: Not really. I was 9 when Rick joined the core. K.C.: How old is he now? Cherry: 28… ah, 29 in two months. McMurphy: He's a man…. Cherry: Of course he's a man. What did you think? McMurphy: I don't know I guess I thought he was a kid, like you.

McMurphy (recording a message for her brother): Yo there! Daniel Patrick McMurphy. Well, it had to happen. Even my brother, mother McMurphy's baby boy, finally had to grow up. Although I'm sure she was hoping for a parish priest instead of a hippie degenerate freak. In commemoration of your 21st birthday I am sending you an example of Vietnam's finest cultural attractions. I trust that you and your commune's esthetic consciences will be properly raised. Love, peace and the American way, Colleen.

Beckett: Welcome to the G.I.U. man. You'll get used to it Omar: That's what my momma said about the army. Beckett: That's what MY momma said about the army. Omar: That's what my momma said about everything I'd ever do for the last 19 years.

Cherry: K.C. told me to look under the biggest rock. What would you do if it was Danny who was missing or…? McMurphy: Brian, Brandon or Connor? I'd find someone who'd turn over every rock there is. (a bit later) Dodger: Cherry. Cherry: Dodger. I need your help. Dodger: You should have asked me sooner.
