World War I It was in 1915 that the old world ended. D. H. Lawrence, Kangaroo © 2016 Kwiple.com
World War I No truce or parley mitigated the strife of the armies. The wounded died between the lines; the dead mouldered into the soil. Poison gas in many forms stifled or seared the soldiers.  Liquid fire was projected upon their bodies. Men fell from the air in flames, or were smothered, often slowly, in the dark recesses of the sea. Winxton Churchill, The World Crisis © 2023 Kwiple.com
 
World War I A saying went round, “We went to war with Rupert Brooke and came home with Siegfried Sassoon.” May Wedderburn Cannan © 2016 Kwiple.com
