Dialogue
[edit]- Dimitry: I have a joke: "Do you know how to tell a communist?"
- The Captain: Hmm...
- Dimitry: "It's someone who reads Marx and Lenin. And do you know how to tell an anti-communist?"
- The Captain: [drinks wine] Mm-mm...
- Dimitry: "It's someone who understands Marx and Lenin." It's Ronald Reagan. Funny guy.
- The Captain: Uh... "Never argue with an idiot, they'll only bring you down to their level and beat you with experience." Mark Twain.
- Dimitry: Ah, okay. Ronald Reagan, he said also: "Socialism works only in heaven where they don't need it, and in hell where they already have it." [both chuckle]
- The Captain: That's pretty good.
- Dimitry: Yeah.
- The Captain: [checks phone] Okay. Hold on. Got one here. Oh, oh, oh, oh. No, I have one: "Growth for the sake of growth is the ideology of a cancer cell."
- Dimitry: Ah...
- The Captain: That's Edward Abbey.
- Dimitry: Listen: "The problem with socialism is that you eventually run out of other people's money."
- The Captain: Ah!
- Dimitry: Margaret Thatcher.
- The Captain: Ah... You're gonna like this one: "The last capitalist we hang will be the one who sold us the rope." Karl Marx. [boat shakes]
- Dimitry: Okay. Okay... Classic. [reads from phone] "The most powerful single force in the world today is man's eternal desire to be free and independent." Kennedy.
- The Captain: Okay... "Freedom in capitalist society always remains about the same as it was in ancient Greece. Freedom... for slave owners."
- Dimitry: I know. Vladimir Lenin! School. A Russian capitalist, and an American communist.
