Lieutenant Frederic Henry

 * It's filthy wine - it takes the enamel off your teeth and leaves it on the roof of your mouth.

 * [to Frederic] Poor baby. Tomorrow I will get you drunk, and I will take out your liver, and I will put you in a good Italian liver, and make a man of you again. Ciao, baby!
