If you're going to use it {the gun}, point that thing at my head. That's where the trouble is. Gut-shot soldiers take half a day to die. I've seen them. Walking around with their guts in their arms like dirty washing.

— The one minute. The soldier's minute. In a battle, that's all you get. One minute of everything at once. And anything before is nothing. Everything after nothing. Nothing in comparison to that one minute.
— Didn't you get enough minutes over there?

You can lose a lot of soldiers, but still win the game.
