When there is fear of failure, there will be failure.

I am convinced that much more emphasis should be placed on history. The purpose of history is to learn how human beings react when exposed to the danger of wounds or death.

The publicity I have been getting, a good deal of which is untrue, and the rest of it ill considered, has done me more harm than good.

Give me an Army of West Point graduates and I'll win a battle... Give me a handful of Texas Aggies and I'll win a war.

Officers must be made to care for their men. That is the sole duty of all officers.

Wars may be fought with weapons, but they are won by men.

Never in history has the navy landed an army at the planned time and place. But if you land us anywhere within 50 miles of Fedela and within 1 week of D-Day. I'll go ahead and win.
