| "I divide my officers into four classes; the clever, the lazy, the industrious, and the stupid. Each officer possesses at least two of these qualities. Those who are clever and industrious are fitted for the highest staff appointments. Use can be made of those who are stupid and lazy. The man who is clever and lazy however is for the very highest command; he has the temperament and nerves to deal with all situations. But whoever is stupid and industrious is a menace and must be removed immediately!"
- General Kurt von Hammerstein-Equord, Truppenführung, 1933 |

| 以呂波耳本へ止
千利奴流乎和加
餘多連曽津祢那
良牟有為能於久
耶万計不己衣天
阿佐伎喩女美之
恵比毛勢須
Even blooming flowers
Will eventually fade
Even this world
Is not eternal
The mountains of vanity:
Cross them today
And superficial dreams
Shall no longer delude you
