Amity as you know means friendship.
Amity has been known for its clear skys and white sandy beaches, but recently a cloud has formed over the horizon, a cloud, in the shape, of a killer shark.
As you can see it’s a beautiful day, the beaches are open, and people are having a wonderful time. Amity, as you know, means friendship.

Hooper: What you’ve got here is a perfect eating machine. It’s a miracle of evolution. It does nothing but swim, eat, and make little sharks.
I am pleased to say that some local fishermen have caught and killed a large predator which supposedly injured some bathers, but as you can see, it’s a beautiful day, and everyone’s having a wonderful time… Amity, as you know, means friendship

It’s Fourth of July weekend. You cry epitome and we’ve got a panic on our hands during the biggest holiday of the season. As the mayor, I won’t allow it.
its only an island if you look at it from the water.
Japanese submarine slammed two topedoes into our side, Chief. Was coming back from the Island of Tinian Leyte. Just delievered the bomb, the Hiroshima bomb. Eleven Hundred men went into the water. Vessel went down in twelve minutes. Didn’t see the first shark for about a half an hour. Tiger. Thirteen footer. You know how you know that when your in the water Chief? You can tell by lookin’ from the dorsal to the tail. What we didn’t know, was that our bomb mission had been so secret, no distress signal had been sent. They didn’t even list us overdue for a week. Very first light Chief, sharks come cruisin’ so we formed ourseleves into tight groups. Kinda’ like old squares in a battle. Like you see on a calender like the Battle of Waterloo, and the idea was, shark comes to the nearst man that man, he starts poundin’ and hollerin’and screamin’, sometime’ the shark go away….sometimes he wouldn’t go away. Some time’s that shark he look’s right into ya ..right into your eyes….and another thing about a shark. He’s got lifeless eyes, black eyes, like a dolls eyes. When he comes at ya, he doesn’t seem to be livin’. Until he bites you. Then those black eyes roll over white. And then…well you hear that terrible high pitch screamin’. The ocean turns red, despite all the poundin and hollerin’ ….and all come in and rip you to peices. You know by the end of that first dawn, lost a hunded men. I don’t know how many sharks, maybe a thousand. I don’t know how many men, they averged six an hour. On Thursady morning Chief, I bumped into a friend of mine, Herbie Robertson from Cleveland. Baseball player, boatswain’s mate. I thought he was asleep. Reached over to wake him up. Bobbed up and down in the water like a kinda’ top. Upended. Well he’d been bitten in half below the waist. Noon the fifth day, mister Hooper, a Lockheed Ventura saw us, he swung in low and saw us. A young pilot, alot younger than Mr. Hooper..anyway he saw us and he come in low, and three hours later a big fa
Line up another barrell, I’m coming round agian!
Listen, listen, there are 2 things you’re going to do about this animal… you’re either gunna kill it or you’re gunna cut off it’s food supply!
Martin, it’s all psychological. If you yell barracuda, people are gonna say, huh, what? You yell shark…then, we have a panic on our hands on the 4th of July.
mary ellen moffett…she broke my heart
mrs. brody, be home

My son is dead because of you.
Not so good is it Cheif?
Now Brody, if you yell baraccuda people will say huh? what?, if you yell shark, then we got a panic on our hands on the fourth of july.
Now, I want those paint happy bastards caught and hung up by their buster browns!
Nowadays these kids, they take out everything. Radar, sonar, ‘lectric toothbrushes. Jesus H. Christ.

Quint: I’ll never put on a life jacke again.
Quint: Japanese submarine slammed two torpedoes into our side, chief. It was comin’ back, from the island of Tinian Delady, just delivered the bomb. The Hiroshima bomb. Eleven hundred men went into the water. Vessel went down in twelve minutes. Didn’t see the first shark for about a half an hour. Tiger. Thirteen footer. You know, you know that when you’re in the water, chief? You tell by lookin’ from the dorsal to the tail. Well, we didn’t know. `Cause our bomb mission had been so secret, no distress signal had been sent. Huh huh. They didn’t even list us overdue for a week. Very first light, chief. The sharks come cruisin’. So we formed ourselves into tight groups. You know it’s… kinda like `ol squares in battle like a, you see on a calendar, like the battle of Waterloo. And the idea was, the shark would go for nearest man and then he’d start poundin’ and hollerin’ and screamin’ and sometimes the shark would go away. Sometimes he wouldn’t go away. Sometimes that shark, he looks right into you. Right into your eyes. You know the thing about a shark, he’s got…lifeless eyes, black eyes, like a doll’s eye. When he comes at ya, doesn’t seem to be livin’. Until he bites ya and those black eyes roll over white. And then, ah then you hear that terrible high pitch screamin’ and the ocean turns red and spite of all the poundin’ and the hollerin’ they all come in and rip you to pieces.
Y’know by the end of that first dawn, lost a hundred men! I don’t know how many sharks, maybe a thousand! I don’t know how many men, they averaged six an hour. On Thursday mornin’ chief, I bumped into a friend of mine, Herbie Robinson from Cleveland. Baseball player, bosom’s mate. I thought he was asleep, reached over to wake him up. Bobbed up and down in the water, just like a kinda top. Up ended. Well… he’d been bitten in half below the waist. Noon the fifth day, Mr. Hooper, a Lockheed Ventura saw us, he swung in low and he saw us. He’d a young pilot, a lot younger than Mr. Hooper, any

I dont want no volunteers I dont want no mates, too many captains on this island. It wont be plesant, I value my neck alot more than 3 thousand bucks cheif, i’ll find him for 3, but i’ll catch him and kill him for 10.
