- Roald Dahl: Some people, when they have taken too much and have been driven beyond the point of endurance, simply crumble and collapse and give up. Others however, though they are not many, who will for some reason always be unconquerable. You meet them in time of war and also in time of peace. They have an indomitable spirit. And nothing, neither pain, nor torture, nor threat of death will cause them to give up. Little Peter Watson was one of these.
- [first lines]
- Narrator: Ernie had been given a rifle for his birthday. He took the gun, and a box of bullets, and went out to see what he could kill.
