 Favorite George S. Patton sayings:
"The object of war is not to die for your country, but to make the other bastard die for his." "A good solution applied with vigor now is better than a perfect solution applied ten minutes later." "Do everything you ask of those you command." "Do more than is required of you." "Do not fear failure." "Do not make excuses, whether it is your fault or not." "Do not take counsel of your fears." "Give credit where it is due." "In case of doubt, attack." "It's the unconquerable soul of man, and not the nature of the weapon he uses, that insures victory." "Lack of orders is no excuse for inaction." "Make your plans to fit the circumstances." "Moral courage is the most valuable and usually the most absent characteristic in men." "Say what you mean and mean what you say." "Take calculated risks." "The duties of an officer are the safety, honor, and welfare of your country first; the honor, welfare, and comfort of the men in your command second; and the officer s own ease, comfort, and safety last." "The soldier is the army." "There is only one tactical principle which is not subject to change; it is, 'To use the means at hand to inflict the maximum amount of wounds, death, and destruction on the enemy in the minimum amount of time.' " "There is only one type of discipline, perfect discipline." "There s a great deal of talk about loyalty from the bottom to the top. Loyalty from the top down is even more necessary and is much less prevalent. One of the most frequently noted characteristics of great men who have remained great is loyalty to their subordinates." "You're never beaten until you admit it." "Maybe there are 5 000, maybe 10 000 Nazi bastards in their concrete foxholes before the Third Army. Now if Ike stops holding Monty's hand and gives me the supplies, I'll go through the Sigfried Line like shit through a goose." "You shouldn't underestimate an enemy, but it is just as fatal to overestimate him." "When this war is over, I am going to remove my medals and stars and leave only my jacket on and they all can kiss my ass." "It is only by doing things others have not that one can advance."
