The obvious thing for the cavalryman to do is to accept the fighting machine as a partner, and prepare to meet more fully the demands of future warfare.

Human beings are made up of flesh and blood, and a miracle fiber called courage.

The fixed determination to have acquired the warrior soul, to either conquer or perish with honor, is the secret of victory.

Make the mind run the body. Never let the body tell the mind what to do. The body will always give up.

Urge all of your men to pray, not alone in church, but everywhere. Pray when driving. Pray when fighting. Pray alone. Pray with others. Pray by night and pray by day. Pray for the cessation of immoderate rains, for good weather for Battle.Pray for the defeat of our wicked enemy whose banner is injustice and whose good is oppression. Pray for victory. Pray for our Army, and Pray for Peace. We must march together, all out for God.

When you have collected all the facts and fears and made your decision, turn off all your fears and go ahead!

The duties of an officer are the safety, honor, and welfare of your country first; the honor, welfare, and comfort of the men in your command second; and the officer s own ease, comfort, and safety last.
