Drill Sergeant Quotes in The Krays (1990)

[the Kray twins have been called up for National Service in the Army]

Drill Sergeant: You are not people any more. You are not human beings. You are part of a machine. You do not wear what you want to, think what you want to - you wear what we tell you, think what we tell you, eat when we tell you, sleep, shit and fuck when we tell you!

[a soldier giggles]

Drill Sergeant: Someone stick a feather up your arse, lad?

Soldier: Sarge?

Drill Sergeant: You're grinning like a bloody Cheshire cat!

[Ronnie and Reggie start walking away]

Drill Sergeant: And where do you little darlings think you're off to?

Reggie Kray: Home, for a cup of tea with our mum.

Drill Sergeant: Get your nasty little arses back in here!

Reggie Kray: Look, you've got nothing to say and you're saying it too loudly. So...

Ronald Kray: ...Bollocks!

[the other soldiers laugh]

Drill Sergeant: QUIET!

[the Sergeant tries to restrain Ronnie and Reggie, so, in perfect synchrony, they both floor him with a punch]

Drill Sergeant: Gump! What's your sole purpose in this army?

Forrest Gump: To do whatever you tell me, drill sergeant!

Drill Sergeant: God damn it, Gump! You're a god damn genius! This is the most outstanding answer I have ever heard. You must have a goddamn I.Q. of 160. You are goddamn gifted, Private Gump. Listen up, people...

Forrest Gump: [narrates] Now for some reason I fit in the army like one of them round pegs. It's not really hard. You just make your bed real neat and remember to stand up straight and always answer every question with "Yes, drill sergeant."

Drill Sergeant: ...Is that clear?

Forrest Gump: Yes, drill sergeant!

[Forrest has finished assembling his rifle]

Forrest Gump: DONE, DRILL SERGEANT!

Drill Sergeant: GUUUUUUMP! Why did you put that weapon together so quickly, Gump?

Forrest Gump: [confused] You told me to, Drill Sergeant?

Drill Sergeant: Jesus H. Christ!

[looks at stopwatch]

Drill Sergeant: This is a new company record! If it wouldn't be such a waste of a damn-fine enlisted man I'd recommend you for OCS! You are gonna be a general someday, Gump, now disassemble your weapon and continue!

Drill Sergeant: Your finger's in my alley.

Brüno: Not yet.

Drill Sergeant: One, two. One, two. One, two.

Boris: Three is next, if you're having any trouble.

Drill Sergeant: From now on you'll clean the mess hall and the latrine!

Boris: Yes, sir! How will I tell the difference?

Drill Sergeant: You want a dishonorable discharge?

Boris: Yes sir, either that or a furlough.

Drill sergeant: You... are... scum! Do you hear me soldier?

Wally: Yes, sir!

Drill sergeant: Do you know what we are going to be doing today?

Wally: No, sir!

Drill sergeant: We are going to be doing push-ups all day, you and me, all day!

[Wally smiles]

Drill sergeant: Do you think that's funny soldier?

Wally: No, sir!

Drill sergeant: Well, just for that, you are going to be doing those push-ups with me lying on your back! You are going to discover muscles, you never knew you had! Big... muscles, hard... muscles!

Wally: Oh, yesss, sir!

[Wally's squad is watching naked men shower]

Drill sergeant: [to Wally] You go over there and Fuck 'em. We'll stay here and Masturbate. Go, go, go!

Drill Sergeant: [a group of soldiers are doing calisthenics when Captain Davenport drives by in a jeep. Everyone stops and stares in astonishment] Alright, soldiers, let's get back to those exercises! Haven't you seen a colored officer before?

GI: No, sir! Have you?
