It seems that all glorious things can only be achieved in war. In this vision, he and his passionate classmates joined the army with excitement. The boy who has never suffered before will have to cooperate and tease himself with his fellow classmates. The commander did not realize how innocent the hearty laughter of the cruel war was until he was hungry and had nothing to eat until he was sleepy, but the night was roaring with artillery, until the classmate who fell by his side during the first mission was the first classmate who was scared. I was carried into the medical station between advance and retreat. Countless comrades fell down and even hoped to go home happily with the enemy. Knowing that this is the cruel war. His mature and resolute eyes, who returned to the battlefield again, were trained after witnessing the cruel reality and experiencing spiritual baptism. Unforgettable eyes, unforgettable last scene

All Quiet on the Western Front quotes
-
Hair-peak soldier: And manufacturers. They get rich.
[murmurs of agreement]
Albert Kropp: I think it's more a kind of fever. Nobody wants it in particular, and then all at once, there it is. We didn't want it. The English didn't want it. And here we are fighting.
-
Albert Kropp: Ah, the French certainly deserve to be punished for starting this war.
Detering: Everybody says it's somebody else.
Tjaden: Well. how do they start a war?
Albert Kropp: Well, one country offends another.
Tjaden: How could one country offend another?
Tjaden: You mean there's a mountain over in Germany gets mad at a field over in France?
[Everyone laughs]
Albert Kropp: Well, stupid, one people offends another.
Tjaden: Oh, well, if that's it, I shouldn't be here at all. I don't feel offended.
Katczinsky: It don't apply to tramps like you.
Tjaden: Good. Then I could be goin' home right away.
Paul Bäumer: Ah, you just try it.
Katczinsky: Yeah. You wanna get shot?
Tjaden: The kaiser and me...
[the others laugh]
Tjaden: Me and the kaiser felt just alike about this war. We didn't either of us want any war, so I'm going home. He's there already.
Hair-peak soldier: Somebody must have wanted it. Maybe it was the English. No, I don't want to shoot any Englishman. I never saw one 'til I came up here. And I suppose most of them never saw a German 'til *they* came up here. No, I'm sure *they* weren't asked about it.
Paul Bäumer: No.
Detering: Well, it must be doing somebody some good.
Detering: Not me and the kaiser.
Hair-peak soldier: I think maybe the kaiser wanted a war.
Tjaden: You leave us out of this!
Katczinsky: I don't see that. The kaiser's *got* everything he needs.
Hair-peak soldier: Well, he never had a war before. Every full-grown emperor needs one war to make him famous. Why, that's history.
Paul Bäumer: Yeah, generals, too. They need war.
