- The line 'I am without politics' means that the old man has no stake in the war. He refuses to take sides in the conflict, since it ultimately has nothing to do with him. Regardless, he has been pulled into the war, which has now stripped him of everything he once owned.
- Through the old man, Ernest Hemingway tries to show his readers that war affects more than those invested in the conflict. When war destroys peoples' families and livelihoods, it shows no concern for whether they were fighters or bystanders. It simply bulldozes its way through, leaving nothing but wreckage in its wake.
