  • When you're starving, you'll do anything.

Stanislaus "Kat" Katczinsky edit

  • Germany will soon be empty.

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.
