    “Japanese submarine slammed two torpedoes into her side, Chief. We was comin’ back from the island of Tinian to Leyte. We’d just delivered the bomb. The Hiroshima bomb. Eleven hundred men went into the water. Vessel went down in 12 minutes.

    Didn’t see the first shark for about a half-hour. Tiger. 13-footer. You know how you know that in the water, Chief? You can tell by lookin’ from the dorsal to the tail. What we didn’t know, was that our bomb mission was so secret, no distress signal had been sent. They didn’t even list us overdue for a week. Very first light, Chief, sharks come cruisin’ by, so we formed ourselves into tight groups. It was sorta like you see in the calendars, you know the infantry squares in the old calendars like the Battle of Waterloo and the idea was the shark come to the nearest man, that man he starts poundin’ and hollerin’ and sometimes that shark he go away… but sometimes he wouldn’t go away.

    Sometimes that shark looks right at ya. Right into your eyes. And the thing about a shark is he’s got lifeless eyes. Black eyes. Like a doll’s eyes. When he comes at ya, he doesn’t even seem to be livin’… ’til he bites ya, and those black eyes roll over white and then… ah then you hear that terrible high-pitched screamin’. The ocean turns red, and despite all your poundin’ and your hollerin’ those sharks come in and… they rip you to pieces.

    You know by the end of that first dawn, lost a hundred men. I don’t know how many sharks there were, maybe a thousand. I do know how many men, they averaged six an hour. Thursday mornin’, Chief, I bumped into a friend of mine, Herbie Robinson from Cleveland. Baseball player. Boson’s mate. I thought he was asleep. I reached over to wake him up. He bobbed up, down in the water, he was like a kinda top. Upended. Well, he’d been bitten in half below the waist.

    At noon on the fifth day, a Lockheed Ventura swung in low and he spotted us, a young pilot, lot younger than Mr. Hooper here, anyway he spotted us and a few hours later a big ol’ fat PBY come down and started to pick us up. You know that was the time I was most frightened. Waitin’ for my turn. I’ll never put on a lifejacket again. So, eleven hundred men went into the water. 316 men come out, the sharks took the rest, June the 29th, 1945.

    Anyway, we delivered the bomb.”

    One of my all time favourite quotes.

    “Life moves pretty fast. If you don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it."

    We've got to get this man to a hospital.
    What is it?
    It's a big grey building with beds in, but that's not important right now.

    A brief, two way conversation in the work factory during Schindlers List, probably my favourite film.
    Oskar Schindler talking to a Rabbi in the camp....

    "Rabbi, sun's going down"

    "Yes, it is".

    "What day is it....it's Friday isn't it"?

    "Is it?

    "What's the matter with you....you should be preparing for the Sabbath. I got some wine in my office, come"
    .............

    5 lines, but that was someone giving someone their dignity back....treating them as a human being. Very small quote I know, but the significance struck a chord with me.

    "He who saves one life, saves the world entire".

    Saw the stage play 'The Shark is broken' with Robert Shaws son doing the Indianapolis speech. Absolute double of his dad too. There was a chill in the air when he did it too. Privileged to experience that.

    Quiet man
    "Red Will" Danaher: I'll count three, and if you're not out of the house by then, I'll loose the dogs on you.
    Thornton: If you say "three," mister, you'll never hear the man count "ten."
