    Mister Roberts quotes

    • Lt. j.g. Douglas A. Roberts: Doc, that new hospital hasn't got nurses, has it?

      Doc: It didn't have yesterday.

      Ensign Frank Thurlowe Pulver: It has today.

      Doc: And how did you find out they were there?

      Ensign Frank Thurlowe Pulver: It just came to me all of a sudden. I was lying on my bunk this morning, thinking. And there wasn't a breath of air. And all of a sudden, a funny thing happened. A little breeze came up, and I took a big, deep breath, and I said to myself "Pulver, boy, there's women on that island!"

    • Lt. j.g. Douglas A. Roberts: Frank, I like you. There's no getting around the fact that you're a real likable guy.

      Ensign Frank Thurlowe Pulver: Yeah? Yeah!

      Lt. j.g. Douglas A. Roberts: But...

      Ensign Frank Thurlowe Pulver: But what?

      Lt. j.g. Douglas A. Roberts: Well, I also think you're the most hapless, lazy, disorganized, and in general, most lecherous person I've ever known in my life.

      Ensign Frank Thurlowe Pulver: I am not!

      Lt. j.g. Douglas A. Roberts: You're not what?

      Ensign Frank Thurlowe Pulver: I am not disorganized!
