- Quotes
Col. Sherman T. Potter: You know, I never got the chance to tell you how much Margaret means to us. We couldn't run this place without her.
'Howitzer' Al Houlihan: Well, that gal is the best thing that ever happened to me!
Col. Sherman T. Potter: Is that so? Well, you sure have a funny way of showing it.
'Howitzer' Al Houlihan: I beg your pardon?
Col. Sherman T. Potter: Margaret's busted her britches trying to please you, but you don't seem to give a tinker's damn!
'Howitzer' Al Houlihan: Forgive me, Colonel, but what business is that of yours?
Col. Sherman T. Potter: It is my business because I care about her. That gal seems to think you have no use for her.
'Howitzer' Al Houlihan: Well, I flew halfway around the world to see her, didn't I? That should say it all.
Col. Sherman T. Potter: It doesn't say enough when all you can do is find fault.
'Howitzer' Al Houlihan: What do you mean by that?
Col. Sherman T. Potter: Well, for openers, walking out on her in the middle of O.R. didn't exactly boost her morale.
'Howitzer' Al Houlihan: [looking away from Potter] That had nothing to do with Margaret!
Col. Sherman T. Potter: Really? Then what did it have to do with?
[Alvin does not respond]
Col. Sherman T. Potter: Was it the doctors' Tom Foolery?
[Alvin still does not respond]
Col. Sherman T. Potter: Was it the blood?
[Alvin looks up]
Col. Sherman T. Potter: [walks a step away and turns around again to face Alvin] Let me tell you something, Alvin, I've seen tougher birds than you who couldn't take it!
'Howitzer' Al Houlihan: It shouldn't be happening to me.
Col. Sherman T. Potter: You mean you'd sooner let her think she was a failure than admit you were about to lose your lunch? You'd rather crush her feelings than let on you're human like the rest of us?
'Howitzer' Al Houlihan: Colonel...
Col. Sherman T. Potter: You're so busy being 'Howitzer Al' Houlihan you can't even let your own daughter know you love her?
'Howitzer' Al Houlihan: Colonel, you raise your family and I'll raise mine.
