Major Rinaldi
[edit]- [to Frederic] Poor baby. Tomorrow I will get you drunk, and I will take out your liver, and I will put you in a good Italian liver, and make a man of you again. Ciao, baby!
Dialogue
[edit]- Catherine Barkley: [she comes to tend a wounded Henry] Hello, darling!
- Lieutenant Frederic Henry: Catherine!
- [she kisses him]
- Lieutenant Frederic Henry: You're lovely.
- Catherine Barkley: Are you badly hurt?
- Lieutenant Frederic Henry: You're lovely.
- Catherine Barkley: [concerned] Oh my poor darling, it's your leg, isn't it?
- Lieutenant Frederic Henry: You're the loveliest thing I ever saw.
- Rinaldi: I will see you are decorated for bravery. Perhaps we can get you the medalgio d'argento. But certainly the bronze one. Did you carry somebody out of battle?
- Lieutenant Frederic Henry: I didn't carry anyone. I couldn't move.
- Rinaldi: Surely there was something heroic. Tell me what you did.
- Lieutenant Frederic Henry: I was blown up eating cheese.
- Lieutenant Frederic Henry: We've never been apart, really. Not since we met.
- Catherine Barkley: Not since we met.
- Lieutenant Frederic Henry: And never can be.
- Catherine Barkley: Never apart.
- Lieutenant Frederic Henry: In life and in death. Say it Cat.
- Catherine Barkley: In life and in death, we'll never be parted.
- Lieutenant Frederic Henry: You do believe that, don't you, Cat?
- Catherine Barkley: I believe it, and I'm not afraid.
