Only line like that I know of is "I want that ship, not excuses."

How could he point at it when they invade Hoth, it was in a flight hangar
and they take off in it time to blast Vader with some exhaust. I saw it in
the theater too, and don't recall that line - in fact, the pacing and score
don't really leave a place for that dialogue to take place.

Though it fits with Lucas' inability to do anything but provide banal
expository dialogue...
