Sunday Snippets on Saturday

Since tomorrow is Mother's Day I decided I'd send some snippets your way today and free up space for my mommy tomorrow.


"A hospital alone shows what war is."
--All Quiet on the Western Front, Erich Maria Remarque


~~~~~


"War is the cause of death like cancer and tuberculosis, like influenza and dysentery.  The deaths are merely more frequent, more varied and terrible."
--All Quiet on the Western Front, Erich Maria Remarque


~~~~~


"Here, on the borders of death, life follows an amazingly simple course, it is limited to what is most necessary, all else lies buried in gloomy sleep. . ."
--All Quiet on the Western Front, Erich Maria Remarque

Can you tell I've only had time to read one book this week?  Real cheery, huh? 


Happy (almost) Sunday,

P.S. This is day seventeen of my twenty-one day blogging adventure. I'd say it's going well, but I barely made it with two minutes to spare today.  Yikes.
