Gary Cooper .... Maj. Thomas Thorn
Rita Hayworth .... Adelaide Geary
Major Thomas Thorn: I became two men. One can't stand living in the same skin with the other.
Major Thomas Thorn: Did you ever see the Medal of Honor?
Private Renziehausen: No, Sir.
Major Thomas Thorn: It's the most beautiful decoration of all, as it should be. I'd trade an ear for one any time, two in fact.
Private Renziehausen: Excuse me, Sir, but I'd rather have the ear.
Major Thomas Thorn: If there's one piece of truth in your insect soul, I want it!
Adelaide Geary: Heroes? Saints living in the desert? My God, they tried to rape me! And blackmail you! It's a wonder they haven't shot you already! No, Thorne, they're only men - and cursed poor specimens at that!
Major Thomas Thorn: I have less right than any man on earth to judge them.
Adelaide Geary: Or to judge yourself either.
Major Thomas Thorn: [pauses] You may be right, what you say. They're human beings. But they're more than that. They have one thing in them that is a miracle and a mystery. It redeems them. They don't know what it is themselves, but they have it. I have to save it.
Adelaide Geary: You really believe this?
[he nods]
Adelaide Geary: If you do, Thorn, if you do ... you may be worth all of them.
