1:53:03
You asked me to tell them
how much they're needed out there.
1:53:07
He tells you, "Go out and die."
1:53:09
Oh, but if you'll pardon me,
it's easier to say "Go out
and die" than it is to do it.
1:53:13
- (Boy) Coward!
- And it's easier to say it
than to watch it happen.
1:53:18
- (Angry Clamouring)
- (Professor) No! No! Boys, boys!
1:53:23
- I'm sorry, Baumer, but I must say...
- It's no use talking like this.
1:53:27
You won't know
what I mean.
1:53:29
Only, it's been a long while since
we enlisted out of this classroom.
1:53:33
So long I thought maybe the whole
world had learned by this time.
1:53:38
Only now they're sending babies,
and they won't last a week!
1:53:42
I shouldn't have come
on leave.
1:53:44
Up at the front you're alive
or you're dead, and that's all!
1:53:47
You can't fool anybody
about that very long.
1:53:50
Up there we know we're lost and
done for whether we're dead or alive.
1:53:54
Three years we've had of it...
four years.
1:53:57
Every day a year
and every night a century.
1:54:01
Our bodies are earth
and our thoughts are clay...
1:54:04
and we sleep
and eat with death.
1:54:06
We're done for because you can't live
that way and keep anything inside you!
1:54:11
I shouldn't have come on leave.
I'll go back tomorrow.
1:54:14
I've got four days more, but I can't
stand it here! I'll go back tomorrow!
1:54:19
Sorry.
1:54:32
Mother, you'll catch cold here.
You must go to sleep.
1:54:36
There'll be plenty of time
to sleep...
1:54:38
when you're gone.
1:54:41
Must you go tomorrow, Paul?
Must you?
1:54:45
Yes, Mother.
Orders were changed.
1:54:50
Are you very much afraid, Paul?
1:54:53
No, Mother.
1:54:57
There's something I want
to say to you, Paul.
