If a man does his best, what else is there?
George S. Patton
A man must know his destiny… if he does not recognize it, then he is lost. By this I mean, once, twice, or at the very most, three times, fate will reach out and tap a man on the shoulder… if he has the imagination, he will turn around and fate will point out to him what fork in the road he should take, if he has the guts, he will take it.
George S. Patton
It is rather interesting how you get used to death.
George S. Patton
There is only one tactical principle which is not subject to change. It is to use the means at hand to inflict the maximum amount of wound, death, and destruction on the enemy in the minimum amount of time.
George S. Patton
Just drive down that road, until you get blown up
George S. Patton
A good battle plan that you act on today can be better than a perfect one tomorrow.
George S. Patton
I am the best damn ass-kicker in the whole U.S. Army!
George S. Patton
