Erich Maria Remarque, “All Quiet On The Western Front”
We were eighteen and had begun to love life and the world; and we had to shoot it to pieces. The first bomb, the first explosion, burst in our hearts. We are cut off from activity, from striving, from progress. We believe in such things no longer, we believe in the war.

I suppose being fierce is a very good thing...I'd love to be a man for a day, just to see...I am an expert of electricity...Discipline is the refining fire...Forgive me my nonsense, as I also forgive...Progress is impossible without change...
