“How dangerous is the acquirement of knowledge and how much happier that man is who believes his native town to be the world, than he who aspires to be greater than his nature will allow.”

“Doduše, ljudi su se izmijenili u dugim mjesecima ratovanja, postali su grublji, nemilosrdniji, možda zbog beskrajnog prostora koji ih je odvajao od kuća, možda zbog surovosti koju nameću rat i stalna blizina smrti, pa opet, zar se ljudi mogu toliko promijeniti, da u jednom času zastaneš zaprepašten i pitaš se u čudu: ko su ovi ljudi? Nemoguće je da su to oni isti koje sam dvije godine poznavao. Kao da ih je rat dugo kužio, i zlo u njima, dotle skriveno, možda i njima skriveno, možda i njima nepoznato, izbilo je iznenada, kao bolest.”
