Quotes

  • “This book is to be neither an accusation nor a confession, and least of all an adventure, for death is not an adventure to those who stand face to face with it. It will try simply to tell of a generation of men who, even though they may have escaped shells, were destroyed by the war.”
    All Quiet on the Western Front
  • “We march up, moody or good-tempered soldiers — we reach the zone where the front begins and become on the instant human animals.”
    All Quiet on the Western Front, Chapter 4
  • “No soldier survives a thousand chances. But every soldier believes in Chance and trusts his luck.”
    All Quiet on the Western Front, Chapter 6
  • “A word of command has made these silent figures our enemies; a word of command might transform them into our friends.”
    All Quiet on the Western Front, Chapter 8
  • “A hospital alone shows what war is.”
    All Quiet on the Western Front, Chapter 10
