“قلت لكم مرارا إن الطوابير التي تمر.. في استعراض عيد الفطر والجلاء (فتهتف النساء في النوافذ انبهارا) لا تصنع انتصارا. إن المدافع التي تصطف على الحدود، في الصحارى لا تطلق النيران.. إلا حين تستدير للوراء. إن الرصاصة التي ندفع فيها.. ثمن الكسرة والدواء: لا تقتل الأعداء لكنها تقتلنا.. إذا رفعنا صوتنا جهارا تقتلنا، وتقتل الصغارا !”
