A matter of Life and Death (quoting Raleigh and Marvell)

British bomber pilot, Peter Carter (David Niven), assuming his plane is going to crash after being damaged in combat, communicates over the radio with June (Kim Hunter), and quotes the first stanza of Raleigh’s contemplation of a happy afterlife, “The Passionate Man’s Pilgrimage”, and then quotes a stanza of Andrew Marvell's "To His Coy Mistress", reflecting about Time's fleetingness.

This serve to define his character, a would-be poet who would have rather written that than "flown through Hitler’s legs".
