Quotes for writing “The enemy started to advance in mass down the railway cutting, about 800 yards off, and Maurice Dease fired his two machine-guns into them and absolutely mowed them down. I should judge without exaggeration that he killed at least 500 in two minutes. The whole cutting was full of bodies and this cheered us all up. “ Lieutenant K. Tower, Royal Fusiliers, 1914 “Two armies that fight each other is like one large army that commits suicide.” French soldier Henri Barbusse, in his novel "Le Feu", 1915
