They have given the world Schiller, Goethe, the famous Kultur, and a new conception of the possibilities of war.
We, who gave the world its kultur, who lead in every department of science, art and literature!" She stared at him in amazement. "You are joking, of course," she said, forgetting her danger for the moment in face of this extraordinary phenomenon. "If you are a German, and I suppose you are, and an educated German at that, you don't for a moment imagine you gave the world anything.
All the main work and preparation was to finish before the last shadow of night had been chased away by the light of the rising sun, before the setting of which many of the boys would lay down their lives that justice and civilisation might triumph over the false doctrine of blood and iron and barbarism German Kultur.
