  • Mais tous les jours, dans la tranchée, nous allons joyeusement nous exposer à pis que cela, car un boulet peut nous casser la jambe, et je suis convaincu qu’un chirurgien nous fait plus souffrir en nous coupant la cuisse qu’un bourreau en nous coupant la tête.But every day, in the trench, we will happily expose ourselves to worse than that, because a ball can break our leg, and I am convinced that a surgeon makes us suffer more by cutting our thigh than a executioner by cutting our head.B2Les Trois Mousquetaires
