We shall kill. If you have not killed at least one German a day, you have wasted that day... Do not count days; do not count miles. Count only the number of Germans you have killed.
Ilya EhrenburgYou could cover the whole earth with asphalt, but sooner or later green grass would break through.
Ilya EhrenburgDo not count the days, do not count the miles. Count only the Germans you have killed. Kill the German - this is your old mother's prayer. Kill the German - this is what your children beseech you to do. Kill the German - this is the cry of your Russian earth. Do not waver. Do not let up. Kill.
Ilya EhrenburgPeople seldom learn from the mistakes of others-not because they deny the value of the past, but because they are faced with new problems.
