The soldier is the army.

A leader is a man who can adapt principles to circumstances.

I don't measure a man's success by how high he climbs but how high he bounces when he hits bottom.

There is no such thing as a successful defense.

...It is a proud privilege to be a soldier – a good soldier … [with] discipline, self-respect, pride in his unit and his country, a high sense of duty and obligation to comrades and to his superiors, and a self confidence born of demonstrated ability.

To be a successful soldier you must know history. . . . What you must know is how man reacts. Weapons change but man who uses them changes not at all. To win battles you do not beat weapons - you beat the soul of man of the enemy man.

You shouldn't underestimate an enemy, but it is just as fatal to overestimate him.
