“It would be well to realize that the talk of ‘humane methods of warfare’, of the ‘rules of civilized warfare’, and all such homage to the finer sentiments of the race are hypocritical and unreal, and only intended for the consumption of stay-at-homes. There are no humane methods of warfare, there is no such thing as civilized warfare; all warfare is inhuman, all warfare is barbaric; the first blast of the bugles of war ever sounds for the time being the funeral knell of human progress… What lover of humanity can view with anything but horror the prospect of this ruthless destruction of human life. Yet this is war: war for which all the jingoes are howling, war to which all the hopes of the world are being sacrificed, war to which a mad ruling class would plunge a mad world.”

“- Tamam! Alman'la birlik olup savaşa girmişiz kardaşlar!
- Girelim ya, geç bile kaldık. Rezilliğe alıştık bi kez! Bir rüzgâr da budur, gelir geçer.
- Hemen geçmesin yahu! Balkan'ın öcünü Bulgar'dan alıverelim de sonra...
- Höst! Senin dünyadan haberin yok! Biz bu kez Bulgar'la birliğiz. 'Can yoldaşı', 'silah arkadaşı' diyelim de aklın yatsın!
-İşte buna şaştım! Gebe karıların karnını deşip, körpe çocukları süngüye takan, câmilere çanlar asan Bulgar gavuruyla, he mi?
- Enver Paşa, 'Önce Sırplıyı aradan çıkaralım da Bulgarların hesabı sonra görülür' diyesiymiş...
- Ne akıl yahu! Ulan aferin Enver Paşa! İngiliz'den Mısır'ı Yunan'dan da Girit'i alacak mıymış?
-Mısır, Girit kaç para? Rus'tan Kırım'ı Kafkasya'yı almadan almadan kılıcı kınına sokmak yok...
-Oh ağzını öpeyim. Gene ballar akıttın. Ama Alman erkekse, bize o zırhlı toplardan bir iki vermeli...
-Hey şaşkın, top ne demek! Herif bize iki gemi vermiş ki dünyada eşi yokmuş...
-Yalana bak!
- Vallah... Gemi vermeseydi, bizim bu savaşta işimiz neydi? Biz bu gemilerin hatırına girmekteyiz! Bunlar savaş patladığı sırada bize yakın bir denizdeymişler. İngiliz bunları sıkıştırmış! Bunlar kaçar, İngiliz'in donanması kovalar. Sonunda Alman gemileri bakmışlar ki kurtuluş yok, bizim Çanakkale Boğazı'na dayanmışlar da yol istemişler. Enver Paşa onlara yol vermiş, arkasını kovalayan İngiliz gemilerine de basmış gülleyi...
-Hele arslana hele! Hey ömrüne bereket! Öyleyse dur sen, ben işi anladım! Alman yeni toplardan bize gizliden vermiş ki bizimkiler İngiliz'i topa tutmuşlar, yoksa n'ağzımızaydı bacanak?
-Artık orasını bilmem. Gemiler şimdi bizde... İngiliz bize çok yalvarmış. Ben ettim, sen etme! Benim benim bu amansız sıramda düşmanıma arka çıkma!' diyerekten...
- Önce gerekti domuuuz! Ismarladığımız Reşadiye gemimizle Sultan Osman gemimizin üstüne oturur musun?”
