Take not counsel of your fears

Accept the challenges so that you may feel the exhilaration of victory. Always do more than is required of you. If a man has done his best, what else is there?

I have the utmost confidence that through your efforts we will eventually beat the hell out of those bastards - You name them; I'll shoot them!

In war the only sure defense is offense, and the efficiency of the offense depends on the warlike souls of those conducting it.

Discipline must be a habit so ingrained that it is stronger than the excitement of battle.

We entered a synagogue which was packed with the greatest stinking bunch of humanity I have ever seen.

My personal opinion is that no people could have sunk to the level of degradation these have reached in the short space of four years.
