Dale Doback: [while Brennan is singing] Boats and hoes!
Tom Jericho: It weighs twenty-six pounds, battery included, and goes anywhere. The Enigma machine - the Germans have thousands of them. Hammerbeck: What's it do? Tom Jericho: It turns plain-text messages into gobbledygook. Then the gobbledygook is transmitted in Morse. At the other end is another Enigma machine, which translates the message back to the original text. Hammerbeck: And you have one of your own. Logie: Uh, courtesy of the Polish Cipher Bureau. Hammerbeck: So what's the problem? Tom Jericho: The problem? The problem is the machine has a hundred and fifty million, million, million ways of doing it, according to how you set these three rotors, and how you connect these plugs. Press the same key any number of times, it'll always come out different. Hammerbeck: And that's Shark? Tom Jericho: No. No, no, no, this is the one we can break. Shark is enciphered on a special Enigma machine with a fourth rotor, designed especially for U-Boats - which gives it about four thousand million, BILLION starting positions. And, uh, we've never seen one. Hammerbeck: Holy shit...
Billy: [delivering a eulogy at Jack's wake] Jack is ... Jack is all right now. You all know ... we are only passing by. We walk over these stones a few times. Our boats ... sail for a little while on the waves and then they have to sink. Jack knew that, better than anyone. Right, Jack?
Should you find yourself in a chronically leaking boat, energy devoted to changing vessels is likely to be more productive than energy devoted to patching leaks.
Ed Leland: What I was going to ask you to do is stand up, turn around, and close your eyes and tell me everything you see in the room. It's an observation test. Do you really have a problem with that? Linda Voss: Pictures of sailboats and polo ponies; fancy books and diplomas; stuffed fish on the wall; calendar set to the wrong date; bookcases that need dusting; carpets that need cleaning; and a couple of guys from Harvard who are surprised that a girl who needs a job won't be treated like a slave.
Jozef 'Puck' Pukowski: Tell me, are we hoping for the U-Boats to find our convoy? Pinker: Of course not. Baxter: I am. [receives stares] Pinker: You c-c-can't mean that! Baxter: What? Sacrifice a convoy to get back into Shark? Of course I would. How many men has Stalin had to sacrifice so far? A million? Two million? It's called "the greater good." Cave: Spoken like someone who isn't in the middle of the North Atlantic at this moment.
...this beginning motion, this first time when a sail truly filled and the boat took life and knifed across the lake under perfect control, this was so beautiful it stopped my breath...
Are you watching the boats?
A war of ideas can no more be won without books than a naval war can be won without ships. Books, like ships, have the toughest armor, the longest cruising range, and mount the most powerful guns.
I spent uncounted hours sitting at the bow looking at the water and the sky, studying each wave, different from the last, seeing how it caught the light, the air, the wind; watching patterns, the sweep of it all, and letting it take me. The sea.
To reach a port we must set sail
