Platoon Quote

King : Hey, Taylor, how in the fuck you get here anyway? You look educated.
Chris Taylor : I volunteered for it.
King : You did what?
Chris Taylor : I volunteered. I dropped out of college, told 'em I wanted the infantry, combat, Vietnam.
Crawford : You volunteered for this shit, man?
Chris Taylor : Believe that?
King : You's a crazy fucker, giving up college?
Chris Taylor : Didn't make much sense, I wasn't learning anything. I figured why should just the poor kids go off to war and the rich kids always get away with it.
King : Oh, I see, what we got here is a crusader.
Crawford : Sounds like it.
King : Shiiit, you gotta be rich in the first place to think like that. Ever'body know, the poor are always being fucked over by the rich. Always have, always will.
