Mr. Dawson : [On the Shivering Soldier] He's shell-shocked, George. He's not himself. He might never be himself again.
-
Shivering Soldier : You haven't turned around.
Mr. Dawson : No, we have a job to do.
Shivering Soldier : Job? This is a pleasure yacht. You're weekend sailors, not the bloody navy. A man your age?
Mr. Dawson : Men my age dictate this war. Why should we be allowed to send our children to fight it?
Shivering Soldier : You should be at home!
Mr. Dawson : Well, there won't be any home if we allow a slaughter across the Channel. There's no hiding from this.
-
Mr. Dawson : [about planes approaching from behind] Spitfires, George. Greatest plane ever built.
Grenadier : You didn't even look.
Mr. Dawson : Rolls-Royce Merlin engines. Sweetest sound you could hear out here.

Irate Soldier : [On the pier in England, Collins steps off Dawson's boat, watching soldiers walk by. One looks at Collins angrily] Where the bloody hell were you?
Mr. Dawson : [to Collins] He knows exactly where you were.

Shivering Soldier : Where are we going?
Mr. Dawson : Dunkirk.
Shivering Soldier : No, we're going to England!
Mr. Dawson : We have to go to Dunkirk first.
Shivering Soldier : I'm not going back!
