Quotes 

• [arriving back at Grytviken] 

  Sir Ernest Shackleton : Do you know me? My name is Ernest Shackleton. We have lost our ship, and come over the island.

  Sorlie : Ernest Shackleton! My friend!

  [They embrace.] 

  Sir Ernest Shackleton : I am afraid that we smell a little.

  Sorlie : This is a whaling station. We all smell a little.

  Sir Ernest Shackleton : We have been away so long. Tell us about the war. When did it end?

  Sorlie : The war? The war, my friend, is not over. They've gone mad, Europe has gone mad. They've killed millions and millions of people. It's a war like... no other war.

  Frank Worsley : Who is winning?

  Sorlie : Well, whoever is left alive at the end. Won't you sit down, please? Please.

  Sir Ernest Shackleton : Mmm, thank you. I... I need to borrow a ship.
