spk_0 This tells the reader, Paul does not think of himself as human anymore, but I am not as
spk_0 a monster of war because of the things he has done to his and people.
spk_0 The bread symbolizes Paul's emotional state and how he feels.
spk_0 So when there is more bread, he is happier and when he bears less bread, he is sadder.
spk_0 For example, when Paul is lonely, at the beginning of chapter 3, there is not even a crust of bread,
spk_0 but when Paul sees the girls, he is a full, well, bread to give them because he is in a better place.
spk_0 For the conclusion, I decided to go off script.
spk_0 Albert Krav is my favorite character in the story because we both have an analytical view
spk_0 of everything, and we both think that there is a better way to fight war.
spk_0 I like the book.
spk_0 It was very well written and had a very realistic and not romanticized view of war.
spk_0 I mean, it did not shine away from talking about the terrible things that happened
spk_0 and more.
spk_0 It also did not have a happy ending or even a positive one at that.
spk_0 And I like that.
spk_0 More books should end realistically and not really have a happy view at the end, especially
spk_0 war books because war isn't a good thing.
spk_0 It's bad thing.
spk_0 People die.
spk_0 People lose one of the ones that they love most.
spk_0 Oftentimes people are forced and they do not get to choose.
spk_0 Or if they did get to choose their pressured into it by society.
spk_0 I like the book.
spk_0 Pretty good.
spk_0 Realist again.
spk_0 I do not like him all the time because I really feel like he was a big part of the book
spk_0 at the beginning.
spk_0 So I don't know why.
spk_0 I think he could have let him out.
spk_0 Left and out because there are people over.
spk_0 I just forgot what I was doing.
spk_0 So I think he should let him restoss out.
spk_0 I think it was dumb character.
spk_0 Although at the end, not the end.
spk_0 Chapters 7 when they become when he tries to make up for it.
spk_0 I think that's kind of cool.
spk_0 So maybe he should have left him in.
spk_0 No, I think about it.
spk_0 So, when I said for the conclusion, I decided to go off script.
spk_0 That was in the script.
spk_0 After I said there was a positive ending, that's off script.
spk_0 I need to feel more time.
spk_0 So, really going off script.
spk_0 I was saying I was going to have script as a joke because I was in the script that I was
spk_0 saying I was going to have script.
spk_0 But now I'm actually going to have script.
spk_0 I'm going to edit this out because this isn't even related to the book or the podcast.
spk_0 Although it is funny, so I'm going to edit it in.
spk_0 We'll see.
spk_0 I'm probably going to leave it in.
spk_0 I like Warbucks.
spk_0 They're interesting.
spk_0 This is Warbucks.
spk_0 It's interesting.
spk_0 I don't like going to my home.
spk_0 I like Warbucks a lot.
spk_0 That was...
spk_0 Alright, round two.
spk_0 My name is Tip Relidier and today I will be talking about a book you've never heard
spk_0 of, sorry guys, called All Quiet on the Weston Front by Eric Remark.
spk_0 I was stuck by talking about three characters, Crock, Hemosdaz and Paul, but not necessarily
spk_0 in that order.
spk_0 Crop is one of Paul's friends.
spk_0 He knew before the war and serves in the same group.
spk_0 He's a smart man that thinks wars should be a kind of popular festival with entrance tickets
spk_0 and bands like a bullfight.
spk_0 Then in the arena, the ministers and generals of two countries, Western bathing, droggers
spk_0 and armed group clubs can have it out for themselves.
spk_0 Remark page 41.
spk_0 Paul is a protagonist of the story.
spk_0 He's also the person telling it.
spk_0 Before the war, you like to read and write.
spk_0 He was even adding a play, but the horse he's seen during the battle turned him into a motionless
spk_0 shallow man when necessary.
spk_0 It is strange to think that at home in the drawer, on my writing table, Dale has the beginning
spk_0 of a play called Saul in the bundle of poems.
spk_0 Remark page 19.
spk_0 Handle stuff started off as someone who was in a position of power and used it to abuse
spk_0 Paul and his friends during their training.
spk_0 But after he went to the trenches with them and experienced what they had to go through,
spk_0 he tried to make it better between them.
spk_0 As proof, he provided or he produced on the spot two pounds of sugar and for us, I
spk_0 have pound of butter, especially for God.
spk_0 Remark page 138.
spk_0 The theme of all quiet on the Western friend is the ending of Innsense.
spk_0 Throughout the book, Paul is faced with many challenges.
spk_0 An example of this is Kimmerk's death.
spk_0 Kimmerk is Paul's longest friend and has only connection to his childhood and the war.
spk_0 In a way, when Kimmerk dies, so does his childhood.
spk_0 The ending of Innsense is a very important part of the book because their innocence is
spk_0 the only thing that keeps them human.
spk_0 So when their innocence ends, they become peace and subordinate and use all knowledge of
spk_0 humanity.
spk_0 Emerger.
spk_0 The scene he is describing in Chapter 6 contributes to the narrative because it shows the reader
spk_0 how he feels very more.
spk_0 During a battle.
spk_0 The rest of the scene is fast paced and we are getting little detail about the imagery.
spk_0 So when he takes time to stop and describe what he is thinking during the attack, it has
spk_0 more of an impact on the reader.
spk_0 Metaphor.
spk_0 He says here that there are beasts in do not fight but defend themselves against an
spk_0 annihilation.
spk_0 While death himself is hunting him now.
spk_0 This tells the reader Paul does not think of himself as human anymore but I am not as
spk_0 a monster of war because of the things he has done to innocent people.
spk_0 The bread symbolizes Paul's emotional state and how he feels.
spk_0 So when there is more bread, he is happier and when he bears less bread, he is sadder.
spk_0 For example, when Paul is lonely at the beginning of Chapter 3, there is not even a crust of
spk_0 bread.
spk_0 But when Paul sees the girls, he is a full or a bad ticket for them because he is in a better
spk_0 place.
spk_0 For the conclusion, I have decided to go off script.
spk_0 Albert Krop is my favorite character in the story because we both have an analytical view
spk_0 everything.
spk_0 We both think that there is a better way to fight war.

spk_0 And I like that.
spk_0 More books should end realistically and not really have a happy view at the end, especially
spk_0 war books because war isn't a good thing.
spk_0 It's bad thing people die.
spk_0 People lose more than ones that they love most.
spk_0 Often times, people are forced and they do not get to choose.
spk_0 Or if they did get to choose they are pressured into it by society.
spk_0 I like the book.
spk_0 Pretty good.
spk_0 Realist again.
spk_0 I do not like him all the time because I really feel like he was a big part of the book
spk_0 at the beginning.
spk_0 So I don't know why.
spk_0 I think there is a lot more.
spk_0 He was not that injured.
spk_0 He could have let him out.
spk_0 Left him out.
spk_0 There are people over.
spk_0 I just forgot what I was doing.
spk_0 I think he should let him let us out.
spk_0 I think it was dumb character.
spk_0 Although at the end, not the end.

spk_0 I need to film more time.
spk_0 I was saying I was going to have script as a joke because I was in the script.
spk_0 I'm actually going to have script.
spk_0 I'm going to edit this out.
spk_0 Although it is funny, so I'm going to edit it in.
