Never try to impress a woman, because if you do she’ll expect you to keep up the standard for the rest of your life.

Everything Patton said was a quote:

A good plan violently executed now is better than a perfect plan executed next week.

A pint of sweat, saves a gallon of blood.

All very successful commanders are prima donnas and must be so treated.

Always do everything you ask of those you command.

Americans love to fight. All real Americans love the sting of battle.

Better to fight for something than live for nothing.

Courage is fear holding on a minute longer.

Don’t tell people how to do things, tell them what to do and let them surprise you with their results.

If everyone is thinking alike, then somebody isn’t thinking.

If we take the generally accepted definition of bravery as a quality which knows no fear, I have never seen a brave man. All men are frightened. The more intelligent they are, the more they are frightened.

It is foolish and wrong to mourn the men who died. Rather we should thank God that such men lived.

No bastard ever won a war by dying for his country. He won it by making the other poor dumb bastard die for his country.

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

Untutored courage is useless in the face of educated bullets.

No good decision was ever made in a swivel chair.

Attack rapidly, ruthlessly, viciously, without rest, however tired and hungry you may be, the enemy will be more tire, more hungry. Keep punching.

Fixed fortifications are monuments to the stupidity of man.

Few men are killed by the bayonet, many are scared by it. Bayonets should be fixed when the fire fight starts.

Most memorable one liners.

I’ll have to be back to this thread.

Reminds me of the feature in the Mad Magazine (purchased by my dear aunt)
titled: “Smart Answers To Dumb Questions” (IIRC).

That’s gonna leave a mark.
