We Entered A Synagogue Which Was Packed With The Greatest Stinking Bunch Of Humanity I Have Ever Seen.

Now If You Are Going To Win Any Battle You Have To Do One Thing. You Have To Make The Mind Run The Body. Never Let The Body Tell The Mind What To Do. The Body Will Always Give Up.

You're Never Beaten Until You Admit It

When I Want My Men To Remember Something Important, To Really Make It Stick, I Give It To Them Double Dirty. It May Not Sound Nice To Some Bunch Of Little Old Ladies At An Afternoon Tea Party, But It Helps My Soldiers To Remember. You Can't Run An Army Without Profanity; And It Has To Be Eloquent Profanity.

Do Not Try To Make Circumstances Fit Your Plans. Make Plans That Fit The Circumstances.

The God Of War Hates Those Who Hesitate.

War Is The Supreme Test Of Man In Which He Rises To Heights Never Approached In Any Other Activity.

The Test Of Success Is Not What You Do When You Are On Top. Success Is How High You Bounce When You Hit Bottom.

Wars May Be Fought With Weapons, But They Are Won By Men.

The Obvious Thing For The Cavalryman To Do Is To Accept The Fighting Machine As A Partner, And Prepare To Meet More Fully The Demands Of Future Warfare.

The Supreme Measure Of A Man, Is What He Would Risk His Life For.

Measure Of A Man

The Real Hero Is The Man Who Fights Even Though He Is Scared.

Each Man Must Not Think Only Of Himself, But Also Of His Buddy Fighting Beside Him. We Don't Want Yellow Cowards In This Army. They Should Be Killed Off Like Rats.

Battle Is The Most Magnificent Competition In Which A Human Being Can Indulge. It Brings Out All That Is Best; It Removes All That Is Base. All Men Are Afraid In Battle. The Coward Is The One Who Lets His Fear Overcome His Sense Of Duty. Duty Is The Essence Of Manhood.

If Everybody's Thinking The Same Thing, Then Nobody's Thinking.

Wars May Be Fought With Weapons, But They Are Won By Men. It Is The Spirit Of Men Who Follow And Of The Man Who Leads That Gains The Victory.

When In Doubt, Attack!

Do Your Duty As You See It, And Damn The Consequences.

A Real Man Will Never Let His Fear Of Death Overpower His Honor, His Sense Of Duty To His Country, And His Innate Manhood.

A Man Must Know His Destiny… If He Does Not Recognize It, Then He Is Lost. By This I Mean, Once, Twice, Or At The Very Most, Three Times, Fate Will Reach Out And Tap A Man On The Shoulder… If He Has The Imagination, He Will Turn Around And Fate Will Point Out To Him What Fork In The Road He Should Take, If He Has The Guts, He Will Take It.

Military Leadership

Military Command

Lead Me, Follow Me, Or Get Out Of My Way.

Untutored Courage Is Useless In The Face Of Educated Bullets.

I Do Not Have To Tell You Who Won The War. You Know, The Artillery Did.

Death Can Be More Exciting Than Life.

Plans Must Be Simple And Flexible....they Must Be Made By The People Who Execute Them.

An Active Mind Cannot Exist In An Inactive Body.

A Man Is Not Measured By How Much He Can Take And Stand But By How Fast He Regains Once Fallen.

I Read The Bible - Every Goddamn Day.

War Is Very Simple, Direct, And Ruthless. It Takes A Simple, Direct, And Ruthless Man To Wage War.

All Of The Real Heroes Are Not Storybook Combat Fighters Either. Every Single Man In This Army Plays A Vital Role. Don T Ever Let Up. Don T Ever Think That Your Job Is Unimportant. Every Man Has A Job To Do And He Must Do It. Every Man Is A Vital Link In The Great Chain.

If You Go Into A Battle, It's Better To Win The First Time.

I Have Studied The Enemy All My Life. I Have Read The Memoirs Of His Generals And His Leaders. I Have Even Read His Philosophers And Listened To His Music. I Have Studied In Detail The Account Of Every Damned One Of His Battles. I Know Exactly How He Will React Under Any Given Set Of Circumstances. And He Hasn't The Slightest Idea Of What I'm Going To Do. So When The Time Comes, I'm Going To Whip The Hell Out Of Him.
