Pаrаphrаse this part frоm The Things They Carried: “They carried all the emоtiоnal baggage of men who might die. Grief, terror, love, longing—these were intangibles, but the intangibles had their own mass and specific gravity; they had tangible weight. They carried shameful memories, they carried the common secret of cowardice barely restrained, the instinct to run or freeze or hide.” Author: Tim O' Brien p. 391
