To be a successful soldier, you must know history.

Success is how high you bounce when you hit bottom.

All men are frightened. The more intelligent they are, the more they are frightened.

Discipline must be a habit so ingrained that it is stronger than the excitement of battle.

In forty hours I shall be in battle, with little information, and on the spur of the moment will have to make the most momentous decisions. But I believe that one's spirit enlarges with responsibility and that, with God's help, I shall make them, and make them right.

So let us do real fighting, boring in and gouging, biting.

An active mind cannot exist in an inactive body.
