It is never possible to guarantee success, it is only possible to deserve it.
Your day will go the way the corners of your mouth turn.
From Stettin in the Baltic to Trieste in the Adriatic, an iron curtain has descended across the Continent.
It has not fallen to your lot to command great armies. You had to create them, organize them and inspire them.
When you get a thing the way you want it, leave it alone.
I'm so bored with it all.
