Many soldiers are led to faulty ideas of war by knowing too much about too little.

The only way you get on in this profession is to have the reputation of doing what you are told as thoroughly as possible.

All men are timid on entering any fight. Whether it is the first or the last fight, all of us are timid. Cowards are those who let their timidity get the better of their manhood.

If we aren't victorious, let no man come back alive!

Courage is fear holding on a minute longer.

Take calculated risks. That is quite different from being rash.
