It's my firm conviction that when Uncle Sam calls, by God we go, and we do the best that we can.

Because I am hard, you will not like me. But the more you hate me, the more you will learn. I am hard but I am fair.

I've never had to spend any time in the VA hospital, so I really can't speak for those guys.

I don't have to be concerned about everybody else's character.

Back in the old Corp, we weren't training those privates to infiltrate into the peacetime Marine Corp. We were training those privates to go to Vietnam.

Without discipline, there is no Marine Corp.

I don't have any respect at all for the scum-bags who went to Canada to avoid the draft or to avoid doing their fair share.
