More quotes by George S. Patton
If I could have three wishes, one would be to take an '88 and shove that barrel up Hitler's ass so that cocksucker can cry like the little god-damned girl he is. And hell, after that, I wouldn't need two more wishes.

George S. Patton

George S. Patton
Untutored courage is useless in the face of educated bullets.
George S. Patton
Do not make excuses, whether it's your fault or not.
George S. Patton

George S. Patton
Successful generals make plans to fit circumstances, but do not try to create circumstances to fit plans.
George S. Patton
In case of doubt, attack.
George S. Patton
In the space of two days I had evolved two plans, wholly distinct, both of which were equally feasible. The point I am trying to bring out is that one does not plan and then try to make circumstances fit those plans. One tries to make plans fit the circumstances.
George S. Patton
I do not have to tell you who won the war. You know, the artillery did.
George S. Patton
