Whatever is unfortunate in war, is severely so indeed, and whatever, on the contrary, is called good fortune, is a savage and a cruel good fortune, an ungenerous happiness deriving its existence from another's woe.
Što god je nesretno u ratu, je zaista snažno tako, a što god, sa druge strane, se zove dobrom srećom, je okrutna i divlja sreća, nevelikodušna sreća stvarajući  svoje postojanje iz nesreće drugoga.
