I have benefited greatly from criticism, and at no time have I suffered a lack thereof.

I am easily satisfied with the very best.

Watch your actions, they become your habits.

Don't be careless about yourselves--on the other hand not too careful. Live well but do not flaunt it. Laugh a little and teach your men to laugh--get good humor under fire--war is a game that's played with a smile. If you can't smile, grin. If you can't grin, keep out of the way till you can.

No folly is more costly than the folly of intolerant idealism.

Nothing in life is so exhilarating as to be shot at without result.

We are waiting for the long-promised invasion. So are the fishes.
