Still the little piece of convulsed earth in which we lie is held.  We have yielded no more than a few hundred yards of it as a prize to the enemy.  But on every yard there lies a dead man."

"Machine guns, mortars, field guns, howitzers: it doesn't matter how much courage soldiers have, how much will; flesh and blood can't pass through bullets and shells, or at least not in sufficient numbers to have any effect. The guns win in the end and they always will. Not us, not the Germans - the guns.”
