Chris Kyle
Savage, despicable evil. That's what we were fighting in Iraq.
Chris Kyle
I thought I should be stronger than was possible.
Chris Kyle
Maybe war isn’t really fun, but I certainly was enjoying it.
Chris Kyle
MY REGRETS ARE ABOUT THE PEOPLE I COULDN’T SAVE—Marines, soldiers, my buddies. I still feel their loss. I still ache for my failure to protect them.
Chris Kyle

Chris Kyle
I am a much better father and husband than I ever was a sniper.
Chris Kyle
