BILL: I use my survival training every day. Being alone in the woods prepared me for being alone everywhere else.

HANK: To catch a fish, you've got to think like a fish.
BOBBY: Hm. "I'm wet and I don't even know it."

TOPAZ: The gumbo is gone-bo.

FUDGIE: Fudgie's hungry now.

BILL: Hey, Hank. My new name is "Energy Turtle."

HANK: Oh, God, don't ruin Jumping Jacks!

HANK: Aaahh! My sleeping bag! Your nudity!

BOBBY: I ate hippie gumbo!

BOBBY: Maybe it's just like you said: to catch a fish, you have to think like a fish. We just have to think like hippies.
HANK: That is impossible.
BOBBY: Come on, Dad, just try. Okay: I'm a hippie, and I'm naked because I smoked all my clothes.
HANK: Yeah. And I don't like to work.
BOBBY: Right. I like everything handed to me. I'm just like a kid.

RANGER BRADLEY: Did you know that hippies are the number-one source of airborne and waterborne pollution, right in front of Dow Chemical and Mexican trucks?
HANK: Uh... I'm not sure about that, but those hippies have got to go. What if Bobby and I took care of them ourselves?
RANGER BRADLEY: Great! How many firehoses do you need? I've got some pepper spray that could take down a bear.
HANK: Or we could just shut off some of the park services.
RANGER BRADLEY: Well, that doesn't sound quite as interesting, but you're on your own.
