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

Just drive down that road, until you get blown up

Sir, I am not a brave man...The truth is, I am an utter craven coward. I have never been within the sound of gunshot or in sight of battle in my whole life that I wasn't so scared that I had sweat in the palms of my hands.

If you tell people where to go, but not how to get there, you'll be amazed at the results.

The most difficult thing about being humble is not being able to brag about it.

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

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?
