Lack of orders is no excuse for inaction.

There are three ways that men get what they want: by planning, by working, and by praying.

You cannot be disciplined in great things and undisciplined in small things. Brave undisciplined men have no chance against the discipline and valour of other men. Have you seen a few policemen handle a crowd?

War is the supreme test of man in which he rises to heights never approached in any other activity.

A good battle plan that you act on today can be better than a perfect one tomorrow.

But between the plan and the operation, there is always an unknown. That unknown spells victory or defeat. ... Some people call it getting the breaks. I call it God. God has His part in everything. That's where prayer comes in.

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?
