"they were supposed to be the ones who would help us eighteen-year-olds to make the transition, who would guide us into adult life, into a world of work, of responsibilities, of civilized behaviour and progress - into the future. Quite often we ridiculed them and played tricks on them, but basically we believed in them. In our minds the idea of authority - which is what they represented- implied deeper insights and a more humane wisdom. But the first dead man we saw shattered this conviction. We were forced to recognize that our generation was more honourable than theirs; they only had the advantage of us in phrase-making and in cleverness. Our first experience of heavy artillery fire showed us our mistake, and the view of life that their teaching had given us fell to pieces under that bombardment."

'my mind,' he said, 'rebels at stagnation. Give me problems, give me work, give me the most abstruse cryptogram, or the most intricate analysis, and i am in my own proper atmosphere. I can dispense then with artificial stimulants. But i abhor the dull routine of existence. I crave for mental exaltation. That is why i have chosen my own profession, or rather created it, for i am the only one in the world.'
