Quotes
-
Ship's captain : [Major Foster and others are sitting down to dine with the ship's captain as they transit to North Africa] Ah, an American in the Foreign Legion, eh?
Maj. William Sherman Foster : [Testily] Yes... That's why they call it the "Foreign" Legion, Captain.
-
Ship's captain : You are going to excavate in Morocco, is that correct?
François Marneau : Yes.
Maj. William Sherman Foster : [Butting in] Grave-robbing, actually. That's what I call it where I'm from.
Maj. William Sherman Foster : [Now turning to look at Murneau] We are in the grave business, aren't we? I mean, you dig them up, and I fill them in.
François Marneau : [Remaining composed] What you call "grave-robbing," Major, is the search for our classical heritage - that is, the secrets of our forefathers.
