Tender is the Night (1934)

"'Why do you want to fight the Soviets?' McKisco said. 'The greatest experiment ever made by humanity? And the Riff? It seems to me it would be more heroic to fight on the just side.'
'How do you find out which it is?' asked Barban dryly.
'Why - usually everybody intelligent knows.'
'Are you a Communist?'
'I'm a Socialist, said McKisco, 'I sympathize with Russia.'
'Well, I'm a soldier,' Barban answered pleasantly. 'My business is to kill people. I fought against the Riff because I'm a European, and I have fought the Communists because they want to my property from me.'
'Of all the narrow-minded excuses,' McKisco looked around to establish a derisive liasion with some one else, but without success."
