Quotes 

• Mike Stapleton : It's strange. It's... it's like they're all children. You know... like they reached a certain age, and then they just stopped growing up. The names... Snow... Flower? It's like they were named by a child.

  Gordon Duvall : Maybe one did. I haven't seen an older person around.

  Mike Stapleton : There's one.

  Gordon Duvall : Who?

  Mike Stapleton : Snow mentioned her sister. She says her sister brought her here, and lives in her own house.

• Gordon Duvall : I figure those girls for 26... 27. And Lizabeth for 32, and her sister's probably the same age.

  Mike Stapleton : Why do you say that?

  Gordon Duvall : Well, no adult ever taught those girls to count. There's no seven or nine in their language. I don't think they've ever been around any adults, unless it was someone whose mind was arrested when they were five or six.

  Mike Stapleton : That explains their innocent qualities.

  Gordon Duvall : Innocent as black widow spiders, my friend. There are no men on this island, and never will be. Oh, some natives come here once in a while for a manhood ritual. The child was a result of rape. And the girl Jo Jo, she had a baby. A boy... and they killed it.

• Gordon Duvall : I have a daughter just about your age. Daughter... Baby girl... Mine.

  Flower : Like Kitty. That's Bambi's baby girl.

  Gordon Duvall : Well, where did she come from?

  Flower : [childlike]  From Bambi.

  Gordon Duvall : Bambi... married? Does Bambi have a man?

  Flower : No man. We kill man. He was headchopper.

  Gordon Duvall : Well, how often do they come here?

  Flower : They come to give us babies and to kill us. They gave Bambi a baby, and Jo Jo. But hers was boy baby and Lizabeth killed it.

• Gordon Duvall : You arrive at the same time and the same way that I do!

  Wendell : Well that ain't gonna be good enough! We're out here in the middle of the ocean, no gas, no radio, no land!

  Gordon Duvall : Why don't ya just calm down! Talk it over an figure this thing out!

  Wendell : Your not giving me orders! I don't work for you anymore!

  J.J. : You heard Mr. Duvall!

  Wendell : Ya I heard him cowboy! And what I told him goes for you too!

• Wendell : Alright, then let's catch one of those women and make her talk!

  J.J. : Sure. Bring them all down on us. How many of them can there be, 8? 30? Or their men?

  Mike Stapleton : I say we talk to them.

  Gordon Duvall : And I say, let's do business with them! They've got something we want, let's find out how much it's going to cost us.

  Gordon Duvall : There must be something here they can use: mirrors, frying pans, pots, cups, knives, forks - we're rich!

  Mike Stapleton : ...Yeah!
