Capt. T.G. Culpeper Quotes:

  • Otto Meyer: I wish I knew what they're going to do to us. But no matter what happens to us...

    [to Captain Culpeper]

    Otto Meyer: what happens to you, I hope will be worse!

    Capt. T.G. Culpeper: I don't think you have to worry too much about that. My wife is divorcing me, my mother-in-law is suing me for damages, my daughter is applying to the courts to have her name changed, my pension has been revoked. And the only reason that you 10 idiots will very LIKELY get off LIGHTLY, is because the judge will have me up there to throw the book at!

    Police sergeant: That ain't fair.

    Capt. T.G. Culpeper: It ain't fair? What ain't fair?

    Police sergeant: They got themselves in there, they ought to be able to get themselves out. Uh, after all, if you help them, you're not being fair to the others.

    Capt. T.G. Culpeper: But, the moment anybody gets to where they're going, we're going to pick 'em up. So what difference does it make who gets there first?

    Police sergeant: Uh uh, it's a race, ain't it? Why do you want to help that dentist for? Me? I've been pullin' all the while for that other guy, Pike, with the furniture van. The rules ought to be the same for everybody. Otherwise, it just ain't fair.
