"Blessed are the meek, for they shall inherit the earth.”

“All these years I had been sustained by an illusion-happiness through victory- and now that illusion was burned to ashes. I was no more happier, no more fullfilled, for all my achievements.

Victory comes through defeat; healing through brokenness; finding self through losing self.”

The more science intervenes in warfare, the more will be the need for engineers in field armies; in the late war there were never enough Sappers at any time.

The Sappers rose to great heights in World War II and their contribution to victory was beyond all calculations.”
