Strange how complicated we can make things just to avoid showing what we feel!

Every little bean must be heard as well as seen!

We lie under the network of arching shells and live in a suspense of uncertainty. If a shot comes, we can duck, that is all; we neither know nor can determine where it will fall." - All Quiet On The Western Front, Ch. 6

Everyone saves someone at least once. Just as he kills someone at least once. Even though he may not know it.

It was a melancholy secret that reality can arouse desires but never satisfy them.

You may turn into an archangel, a fool, or a criminal—no one will see it. But when a button is missing—everyone sees that.

We were all at once terribly alone; and alone we must see it through.
