Japanese Soldier: Are you righteous ? Kind? Does your confidence lie in this? Are you loved by all? Know that I was, too. Do you imagine your suffering will be any less because you loved goodness and truth?
Japanese Soldier: You Very upright? Kind? Is your self-confidence based on it? Are you liked by everyone? I know I was like that too. Do you imagine that because you love kindness and truth you will be spared suffering?

First Sgt. Edward Welsh: I might be your best friend, and you don't even know it.
First Sgt. Edward Welsh: I might be your best friend, but you never know it.
The sacrifices our families have made for us are wasted like water poured on the ground
Do you really represent justice and kindness
Do you really have a clear conscience
Are you really loved?
The bloody violence of war makes people lose their conscience
I don’t want to change, I just want to return to you with my original appearance
I I was a prisoner, it was you who set me free
Darkness and light, hatred and love, all come from the same heart and the same face
Everything you see and hear is a lie Everything
We are trapped in a coffin. A moving coffin (I can't find all of them. If you want to know, you have to see it yourself. The narration in it is amazing) "Saving Private Ryan" REIBEN: You wanna explain the math of this to me? I mean where's the sense of risking the lives of the 8 of us to save one guy? You want to help me do the math? Why should 8 of us go on an adventure alone? MILLER: 20 degrees.Anybody wanna answer that? Heading towards 20 degrees, who wants to answer that question? WADE: Reiben think about the poor bastard's mother. Think about the poor bastard's mother. Reiben: Hey, Doc, I got a matter, all right? I mean, you got a mother, Sarge has got a mother. I mean, shit, I bet even the captain'a got a mother. Well, maybe not the captain ,but the rest of us got mothers. Hey! Doc, I have a mom, you have a mom, the sergeant has a mom, I bet even the captain has a mom, oh, maybe the captain doesn't, but the rest of us do. UPHAM: theirs not to reason why,theirs but to do and die. We can't ask why, theirs but to do and die. We can only choose to perform the mission or die. MELLISH: What's the fuck is that supposed to mean,huh? e're all supposed to die,is that it? What's that supposed to mean? Do we all deserve to die? MILLER: Upham's talking about our duty as soldiers. UPHAM: Yes, sir. MILLER: We all have orders, and we have to follow'em. That superseds everything, including your mothers. Mother. UPHAM: Yes, sir. Thank you, sir. REIBEN: Even if you think the mission's FUBAR, sir? MILLER: Especially if you think the mission's FUBAR.
UPHAM: What's FUBAR? MELLISH: It's German. CAPARZO: Yeah. UPHAM: Never heard of that. JACKSON: Sir.... I have an opinion on this matter. MILLER: Well, by all means, share it with the squad. Share it with your comrades. JACKSON: Well, from my way of thiking, sir, this entire mission is a serious misallocation of valuable military resources. MILLER: Yeah, Go on. JACKSON: Well, it seem to me, sir, that God gave me a special gift, made me a fine instrument of warfare. MILLER: Reiben, pay attention. Now, this is the way to gripe. Continue, jackson. Listen, this is the right way to complain. JACKSON: Well, what I mean by that,sir,is if you was to put me and this sniper rifle anywhere up to and including 1 mile of Adolf Hitler with a clear line of sight,sir--- Pack your pack,fellas. War's over. I mean, if you put me and this gun a mile away from Hitler, with no obstacles around, then pack your bags, the war is over. REIBEN: Amen. Oh, that's brilliant, bumpkin. Hey, so Captain, what about you? I mean,..you don't gripe at all? What you said is brilliant. Captain, you don't complain about Mom at all? MILLER: I don't gripe to you, Reiben. I'm a captain. There's a chain of command. Gripes go up, not down. Always up. You gripe to me, T gripe to my superior officer, so on, so on and so on.I don't gripe to you. I don't gripe in front of you. You should know that as a ranger. , instead of being like a subordinate, you complain to me, and I complain to my superior, step by step, I don't complain to you, I don't complain in front of you, as a commando, you should know this. REIBEN: I’m sorry, sir, but, uh... But if you weren’t a captain, or if I were a major, what would you say? Sorry, if you weren’t a captain, or if I were a major, what would you say?
What would you say? MILLER: In that case, I would say this is an excellent mission, sir, with an extremely valuable objective, sir, worthy of my best efforts, sir. Moreover... I feel heartfelt sorrow for the mother of Private James Ryan and I 'm more than willing to lay down my life, and the lives of my men, especially you, Reiben, to ease her suffering. In that case I would say, this is really a very good task, worthy of my best efforts Target, I feel sorry for Ryan's mother. I am willing to give my life, the lives of my team members, and especially your life, to heal her pain
