Quotes 

• Centurion Quintus Dias : I've never seen a general so beloved of his men.

  Bothos : Well, in training he is our scholar, at feast he is our father, in the ranks he is our brother, and in battle he is the god, we pray, to save our souls.

  Septus : Where did you read that?

  Bothos : It's writ on the shithouse wall, sir.

  Thax : Probably wrote it himself.

  Septus : He's a ruthless, reckless bastard - and I'd die for him without hesitation.

• Bothos : Quintus, what's she doing?

  Brick : She's a Pict and a woman - two good reasons not to trust her.

• Brick : [finding Bothos injured]  They've sworn a blood vengeance against us, and they won't rest until we beg them for death.

  Centurion Quintus Dias : Are you ready to get on your knees and beg?

  Bothos : I'm finished. It's hopeless.

  Centurion Quintus Dias : Hopeless? Hopeless is what they sing songs about, write poems about. Hopeless is the stuff of legend, Bothos, and being a legend will get you laid.
