The quote is Pvt. Hudson's (Bill Paxton), not Cpl. Hicks' (Michael Biehn)...
It comes right after the dropship crashes, and they return to Operations.. Hicks states it will require them to be 17 days overdue before they should expect a rescue. Hudson starts freaking out and says they won't make it 17 hours. Ripley points out that Newt lasted longer then that with no weapons and no training...
Which is why he makes the comment

On my own, I don't have a favorite line, but there are lines I like...
Two of the most recent ones have been:
"String up some bodies, four or five should do, and make sure Shepard Book is at the front, he was our friend and we should honour him. Kaylee, I want you to get the kid takin' a dirt nap with baby Jesus, we need a hood ornament, and Jayne, try not to steal too much of their
"You know, in your next life I hope you come back as a nasty, overbearing shrew. That way you won't have to learn any new skills!" - Mal to Inara, in the 190 page Serenity script

Spot on correct! You know your Aliens, one of the all-time best sci-fi movies.

Way back, one of the channels played a version of Aliens that had some deleted scenes in it (things like the auto-gun sequence). I was so intrigued, I wrote FOX Video (something I had never done before, or since) asking if this version was available (because they were not on my VHS tape, which was the only widely available media at the time). I was told that not only was it not available, but there was only one version, and they had no idea what I was talking about.
A year or so later, I got to go to the grand opening of a Best Buy/FYE (can't remember the name) type place with a friend (she had help set the store up), and bought the "Special Wide Screen Edition" of Aliens. Mainly because it had the "These don't exist" deleted scenes I was looking for... Of course I'm sure everybody will just be jealous as hell when I say this was on LaserDisc... Because DVD's didn't exist at the time.
Of course, since I now had the disc, I needed a LaserDisc player... Which meant I ended up spending $1000.00 to get a nice Pioneer one. Ah!! The good old days.
So you could say that I liked the movie

Edit: I opened the LaserDiscs to look at them (Yes I still have them, although my player is broke), and the response letter from CBS/Fox Video fell out. It's dated June 22, 1989... God I feel old.
