- Man is a frail, lost creature, too weak to walk unaided.
- I saw much during my thirty years as a professional soldier, and I have watched the reactions of many men to pain, hunger and death, but all I have learned is that no two men react alike, and that no one man comes through the experience unchanged.
- The time comes in the life of each of us when we realize that death awaits us as it awaits others, that we will receive at the end neither preference nor exemption.
- If the common soldiers of each army could just get together by a river bank and talk things over calmly, no war could possibly last as long as a week.
- All we know is that life is sweet and that it does not last long. Why should people be envious of each other? Why do we hate each other? Why can't we live at peace in a world that is so beautiful and so wide?
