Maj. Gen. James 'Chaos' Mattis and Col. Joe Dowdy in “Unfinished Business”

The question is, why the fuck am I standing here looking at a fucking bridge that doesn't have my fucking Marines rolling across it?

Sir, we're thirty mikes from initiating the armored assault to engage the enemy along the MSR through the city. Our problem has been refueling the tanks-

Not only 'No', Colonel, but fuck no. Okay? I don't give a rat's ass about the resistance in this city. Your mission is to punch through the city and put RCT-1 north of it where our objectives are. This is just a fuckin' sideshow. You got seven thousand Marine riflemen who have been ready to go for the past twenty-four hours and you're standing here with your foot on your dick. No, check that. Not your dick, my dick. [to Col. Ferrando] Godfather, hold your Marines back for now. If Col. Dowdy here sees fit to un-fuck himself and push through this fuckin' shithole, I'll turn First Recon loose.
