Quotes from movie Treasure Island (1950)

Dr. Livesey: When do we sail?
Squire Trelawney: Better ask Captain Smollett. Five days, he’s been selecting a crew. Six men, all he’s got to show for it.
Dr. Livesey: Cautious, eh?
Squire Trelawney: Cautious? He pries into every seaman’s past like a judge at a quarter session. When I threatened to step in, he told me to hire a sea cook, so, by Jove, I did hire a sea cook, right out of his own tavern! Ha ha! Fellow by the name of Long John Silver. I didn’t waste my time poring over his credentials. All the credentials I needed was a taste of his ham and his buttered eggs!
