Daily Dialogue theme for next week: Military Moments

The Daily Dialogue theme for next week: Military Moments, suggested by Will King.

“There’s always a way to blow up explosives. The trick is not to be around when they go off.”

The Guns of Navarone (1961)

The usual drill:

* Copy/paste dialogue from IMDb Quotes or some other transcript source.

* Copy/paste the URL of an accompanying video from YouTube or some other video source.

I’d also ask you to think about why the dialogue is notable. Is there anything about the dialogue which provides some takeaway related to the craft of writing? If so, feel free to lay that wisdom on us.

Consecutive days of Daily Dialogue posts: 3,047.
