A man who could not be seen over the heads of the throng gave a speech like a fairground barker's, in mangled German, reminiscent of that spoken by German soldiers in comic films about the war.

" The Emperor of Germany was the most suspicious of all, and this is why he will be held responsible for the war, since it was he who made up his mind to declare it.
Le plus soupçonneux fut l'empereur d'Allemagne et c'est pourquoi, ayant pris le parti de déclarer la guerre, il en demeurera responsable.

Et, un jour, retournant à son histoire simple, il pensa: «Mais s'il ne m'était pas arrivé ce qui m'est arrivé, je n'aurais jamais compris le sens de ce regard qu'un soldat emportait dans ses yeux à travers la nuit de guerre…»

While Bismarck dominated the State, war was looked upon as a danger to be avoided, but when trade and manufactures began to expand it became an object of desire, as the way to enrich Germany and then to establish her hegemony over the world.
Pendant la domination de Bismarck, la guerre était considérée comme un danger à éviter. Avec l'expansion commerciale et industrielle, elle devint un but souhaité, d'abord pour enrichir l'Allemagne et ensuite pour établir son hégémonie sur le monde.

C’était un Frison et un marin de haute mer de tout premier ordre, mais comme il connaissait bien le delta du Rhin et que la marine marchande boche était immobilisée jusqu’après la guerre, on lui avait confié ces transports de munitions.
