China Seas1935

Captain Gaskell:
Well, anyway, it'll be quieter in England.

Sir Guy:
Wait till you get there - if you ever do.

Captain Gaskell:
What's to keep me?

Sir Guy:
Well, I've been trying it for 30 years. But, there's something about this place. From my window, I can see the whole harbor of Hong Kong. Big ships coming. Big ships going. The China I know. The China - I've helped to make. On quiet nights, off in the hills, I can hear the sound of distant firing. They were at it when I came. And they'll be at it after I've gone. More guns won't stop them. Too many of them. And the only things they respect are courage and honor. Yes, and England's power! England's place here can never be any greater than the men who represent her.
