Some of the best advice I've had comes from junior officers and enlisted men.

The best that science can devise and that naval organization can provide must be regarded only as an aid, and never as a substitute for good seamanship.

The U.S.'s major strength factor and weapon is its economy. If you cripple it, you cripple the military.

It is the function of the Navy to carry the war to the enemy so that it will not be fought on U.S. soil.

A ship is always referred to as 'she' because it costs so much to keep one in paint and powder.

We shall never forget that it was our submarines that held the lines against the enemy while our fleets replaced losses and repaired wounds.

If you're not making waves, you're not under weigh.
