In Joseph Heller's "Catch-22," Daneka expresses a deep sense of resignation and sorrow regarding her situation amid the chaos of war. She acknowledges the suffering that war brings to many, yet questions why she should also bear that burden, reflecting a sense of unfairness in the sacrifices expected of individuals.

Her statement highlights the emotional toll of conflict and the struggle to find meaning in personal suffering. Rather than complaining, she accepts the harsh realities of war, illustrating how individuals cope with the weight of collective suffering and the inherent injustices tied to it.
