If we take the generally accepted definition of bravery as a quality which knows no fear, I have never seen a brave man. All men are frightened. The more intelligent they are, the more they are frightened.

The most vital quality a soldier can possess is self-confidence.

Often I have encountered in life that great disappointments have proved to be the road to future successes.

Do not make excuses, whether it's your fault or not.

Remember praise is more valuable than blame.

A good battle plan that you act on today can be better than a perfect one tomorrow.

Say what you mean and mean what you say.
