“The French are completely without scruples, energy or valor - the Great War castrated them and left them diminished, whiney, mistaking bickering for debate and shrillness for eloquence, they are a nation in such effete decline that Shickelgrubber, when he finally attacks them, might be dancing with the keys to Paris in his hand after a week or two of puny skirmishing.”

“Nyt, kun Karjalan kansa jälleen nousee ja sarastaa Suomen uusi huomen.”
Carl Gustaf Emil Mannerheim
