More quotes by George S. Patton
When you have collected all the facts and fears and made your decision, turn off all your fears and go ahead!
George S. Patton
Attack rapidly, ruthlessly, viciously, without rest, however tired and hungry you may be, the enemy will be more tired, more hungry. Keep punching.
George S. Patton
Success is not getting to the top - but how you bounce up from the bottom that counts.
George S. Patton
The most difficult thing about being humble is not being able to brag about it.
George S. Patton
Battle... brings out all that is best.
George S. Patton
Remember that the enemy is just as frightened as you are and probably more so. They are not supermen
George S. Patton
So as through a glass and darkly The age long strife I see Where I fought in many guises, Many names - but always me.
George S. Patton
Lead me, follow me, or get out of my way.
George S. Patton
My men can eat their belts, but my tanks have gotta have gas.
George S. Patton
I am sure that if every leader who goes into battle will promise himself that he will come out either a conqueror or a corpse, he is sure to win. There is no doubt of that. Defeat is not due to losses but to the destruction of the Soul of the leaders-the 'live to fight another day' doctrine.
George S. Patton
Battle is an orgy of disorder.
George S. Patton
My men don't surrender. I don't want to hear of any soldier under my command being captured unless he has been hit. Even if you are hit, you can still fight back.
George S. Patton
We want to get the hell over there. The quicker we clean up this Goddamned mess, the quicker we can take a little jaunt against the purple pissing Japs and clean out their nest, too. Before the Goddamned Marines get all of the credit.
George S. Patton
To conquer, we must destroy our enemies. We must not only die gallantly we must kill devastatingly. The faster and more effectively you kill, the longer you will live to enjoy the priceless fame of conquerors.
George S. Patton
Do as I have taught you, and you will stay alive.
George S. Patton
The more I see of Arabs the less I think of them. By having studied them a good deal I have found out the trouble. They are the mixture of all the bad races on earth, and they get worse from west to east, because the eastern ones have had more crosses.
George S. Patton
Always do everything you ask of those you command.
George S. Patton
Wars are not won by fighting battles wars are won by choosing battles
George S. Patton
Close the playand keep the store open nights.
George S. Patton
...It is a proud privilege to be a soldier – a good soldier … [with] discipline, self-respect, pride in his unit and his country, a high sense of duty and obligation to comrades and to his superiors, and a self confidence born of demonstrated ability.
George S. Patton
