      • (a radio starts making a squelching noise) R. Lee Ermey: Sounds like one of these gizmos is giving me some lip. Pipe down! Don't give me any more back talk! You got that?! Edit
      • R. Lee Ermey: Augustus Ceaser coined the Latin phrase "Veni, vidi, vici", "I came, I saw, I conquered." Well, that's not bad, but I got a better description for the fighting I was doing. It doesn't even need a translation. Slice 'em, dice 'em, kill 'em! Edit
