Paul Bäumer[edit]
- The stench will remain on us forever.
- When you're starving, you'll do anything.
Stanislaus "Kat" Katczinsky[edit]
- Germany will soon be empty.
Matthias Erzberger[edit]
- All that's left separating us from an armistice is false pride.
- My son killed in the war. He doesn't feel any honor.
General Friedrichs[edit]
- What is a soldier without war?
- General Friedrichs: A man is born alone, he lives alone, and dies alone.
Dialogue[edit]
- Stanislaus Katczinsky: [commenting on the German advance] Paul, if we keep up this pace, we won't have conquered France for 180 years. I worked it out. [laughs]
- Paul Bäumer: Don't let them catch you, Kat.
- [French cannons bombard the German trenches]
- Tjaden Stackfleet: Creeping barrage.
- Paul Bäumer: What?
- Tjaden Stackfleet: Every couple of minutes, the artillery barrage makes an advance forward. And directly after that, the infantry moves forward.
- Albert Kropp: What does that mean exactly?
- Stanislaus Katczinsky: That they are coming!
- [On Marshal Foch's private train, Matthias Erzberger negotiates a ceasefire with the French]
- Matthias Erzberger: Monsieur le Maréchal, I am asking you for an armistice.
- General Ferdinand Foch: [after handing the document of armistice to Matthias] You have 72 hours to accept our conditions. They are non-negotiable.
- Matthias Erzberger: Seventy-two hours?
- General Ferdinand Foch: The war will continue until you sign them.
- Matthias Erzberger: Monsieur le Maréchal, in God's name, don't let 72 hours pass us by here. Thousands of lives depend on it.
- General Ferdinand Foch: [Marshal stands up to hand a pen to Matthias] Sign then!
- Paul Bäumer: I'm afraid of what's about to come.
- Stanislaus Katczinsky: Don't be.
