My men don't surrender. I don't want to hear of any soldier under my command being captured unless he has been hit. Even if you are hit, you can still fight back.

Sir, I am not a brave man...The truth is, I am an utter craven coward. I have never been within the sound of gunshot or in sight of battle in my whole life that I wasn't so scared that I had sweat in the palms of my hands.

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

Nobody ever defended anything successfully, there is only attack and attack and attack some more.

There is a time to take counsel of your fears, and there is a time to never listen to any fear.

When everyone agrees, someone is not thinking.

A man must know his destiny.
