ultimate form of destruction

No war on the Western Front: Frontline soldiers are starving and under fire, their lives hanging by a thread. The rear is in high spirits, hungry and hungry for victory. In the future, if anyone wants to fight, he will draw an area and let the generals and kings fight directly without weapons. Whoever wins will truly win.
A team of 200 people looking for food
would be cut in half after one fight, and half again after another fight, and the recruits could only die.
Ask an amputee comrade for boots. The owner of each boot, gradually fell.
When the shot was fired here, the opposite side fell and the camera went from left to right. When it is reversed, it is from right to left when this side falls.
The three lovely French girls across the river are not enemies if they have something to eat. They can comfort each other in the middle of the night, although they don't know what the other party is talking about.
Once the humble postman has power, he begins to exercise it to the extreme, training the soldiers without giving them a chance to breathe. When he entered the battlefield, he was trembling and unable to move forward.
The mother in the rear only hoped that her son would come back safely. The father brought his son in uniform and gathered with his friends to discuss happily how to attack. Victory was at hand.
The soldier on vacation felt that the front line was his place, he did not understand the expectations of the rear, and the soldiers in the rear who were eager to go to battle laughed at his weakness.
There is no real winner in the war. The war crushes all ordinary people, making the good become evil and the evil even worse, which is the ultimate destruction.

All Quiet on the Western Front quotes

  • Ginger - the Cook: [looking at soldiers lined up to eat] What do you want?

    Katczinsky: Beans, you homely-looking son of a frog's leg! What do you think I want?

    Ginger - the Cook: [the men shout that they're hungry] Shut up! I'll feed you when you're all here.

    Tjaden: We're all here now!

    Ginger - the Cook: Only half the company's here. Get the rest! Wake 'em up!

    Katczinsky: [the men laugh] I wish I could wake 'em up. There's 80 of us left. The rest is in dressin' stations or pushin' up daisies!

    Ginger - the Cook: [shocked] 80? And I cooked for 150!

    Westhus: All right, we'll have enough for once. Come on, dish out!

    Tjaden: You mean you've cooked beans for 150?

    [the cook nods]

    Tjaden: And you've got bread for 150 and sausage for 150 and tobacco for 150?

    Ginger - the Cook: Everything. It's all wrong. I should have been notified!

    Katczinsky: What a feast! Everyone gets two issues!

    [the waiting men shout]

    Katczinsky: [trying to keep order in the ranks] Get back in line! Get back in line!

    Ginger - the Cook: Oh, no, that woun't do. I can't give 80 men what's meant for 150.

    Katczinsky: [he starts to punch the cook but thinks better of it and tries to be persuasive] Listen, you drew rations for the Second Company, didn't yuh?

    Ginger - the Cook: Yes.

    Katczinsky: All right, we're the Second Company!

    [the men shout]

    Ginger - the Cook: I got my orders.

    Albert Kropp: [agreeing with Kat] That's right.

    Paul Bäumer: We're the Second Company and if only half of us get back, that's our good luck. Come on, dish it out!

    Ginger - the Cook: [the men shout] No!

    Katczinsky: [grabbing the cook by the throat] You're the yellowest baboon that ever drew a cook wagon, and you're scared, and it shows! All we want to hear out of you is one more little yip, and we'll cut yuh up and eat you raw! Why, you keep your kitchen so far back of the lines, we never get anything to eat until it's cold and we're asleep. Now, you low doen rat, get out, or we wreck the joint, so help me!

    [the men shout]

    Katczinsky: Come on, give us some food!

  • Tjaden: There used to be some food in the sawdust. Now it's all sawdust.
