War Stories, Volume 1 Quotes

“The sun was shining brightly on the day that I died.
It blazed from the heavens. It sang from the skies.
On a day the world seemed born again, the HMS Nightingale met her end. She took us with her, every one of us: the Old Man, me, the Doc, the Chief, the babyfaced killer in A-Turret, the fat man from Swansea, all the rest.
She took us to the bottom. Saved our souls.”
― Garth Ennis, War Stories, Volume 1

“Johann Kleist: If something is waiting for me in that midnight thicket, it can have me soon enough.
To be claimed by that primal darkness, to be swallowed up, to cease: the thought of it is bliss to me.”
― Garth Ennis, War Stories, Volume 1
