And our bodies are earth. And our thoughts are clay. And we sleep and eat with death.

Paul Bäumer: And our bodies are earth. And our thoughts are clay. And we sleep and eat with death.

Three years we've had of it-- four years. Every day a year and every night a century. Our bodies are earth and our thoughts are clay... and we sleep and eat with death. We're done for because you can't live that way and keep anything inside you! I shouldn't have come on leave. I'll go back tomorrow. I've got four days more, but I can't stand it here! I'll go back tomorrow!
