• Lt. Nora McKay : Marriage is out.

  Capt. Charlie Stark : What's so out about it?

  Lt. Nora McKay : You're a sky tramp.

  Capt. Charlie Stark : No, but that's all over! I'm gonna stick in this Air Force.

  Lt. Nora McKay : Well, "stick" is the right word! Why do you think you're still a captain?

  Capt. Charlie Stark : I guess I just can't get any generals to die.

  Lt. Nora McKay : Oh, it's because you're irresponsible and they know it. Like that time in Washington - they want officers, not jockeys!

  Capt. Charlie Stark : Great. Once in my life I buzz a little building. How'd I know it was the Supreme Court?

  Lt. Nora McKay : Well, if you had any sense, you'd stop buzzing around in airplanes. You'd take a desk job.

  Capt. Charlie Stark : I don't think I could learn to fly a desk.

• Capt. Charlie Stark : There's a lot of things wrong with me, and one of them is I'm love with ya! I was even crazy enough to wanna marry ya.

  Lt. Nora McKay : Oh, I can see it now - it'd be a beautiful ceremony, in a vine-covered church with you parachuting through the roof.

  Capt. Charlie Stark : Look, don't worry how I get there; you just run your end of the store. All you have to do is sit around looking pretty, rack up a few babies, and keep some cold cans of beer in the icebox.
