I get angry at a principle, not a person.

Any soldier worth his salt should be antiwar. And still there are things worth fighting for.

Do what is right, not what you think the high headquarters wants or what you think will make you look good.

A very great man once said you should love your enemies and that's not a bad piece of advice. We can love them but, by God, that doesn't mean we're not going to fight them.

I was lucky enough to lead a very successful war.

Going to war without France is like going hunting without an accordion.

I don't consider myself dovish and I certainly don't consider myself hawkish. Maybe I would describe myself as owlishthat is wise enough to understand that you want to do everything possible to avoid war.
