Bob Gray : [pensively] When I was a kid, I used to dream about going someplace on a ship. Well, here I am!
Ted Lawson : And out there is Japan. My mother had a Jap gardener once. He seemed like a nice little guy.
Bob Gray : You know I don't hate Japs yet. It's a funny thing. I don't like them, but I don't hate them.
Ted Lawson : I guess, I don't either. You get kind of mixed up.
Bob Gray : Yeah.
Ted Lawson : It's hard to figure, yet here we are.

Lieutenant Colonel James H. Doolittle : [addressing the flight crews assembled in the USS Hornet's briefing room] Lieut. Jurika has detailed maps and pictures of cities and specified targets. Mr. Jurika spent a great many years in Japan. I think it might be a good idea if he gave you some idea of what kind of people you're going to run up against in case you're forced down. Mr. Jurika.
Lieut. Jurika : [Lieut. Jurika gets up and addresses the men] I was assistant Naval attaché at our embassy in Japan, long enough to learn a few things about the Orient.
Bob Gray : Just what should we do, Mr. Jurika? How should we conduct ourselves, in case we are forced down over Japan?
Lieut. Jurika : My advice is, see that you're *not* forced down over Japan.
