More quotes by George S. Patton
Do not make excuses, whether it's your fault or not.
George S. Patton
Take calculated risks.
George S. Patton
Let us not mourn that such men died, but rejoice that such men lived.
George S. Patton
Success is how you bounce on the bottom.
George S. Patton
Death can be more exciting than life.
George S. Patton
A pint of sweat, saves a gallon of blood.
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
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
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
continue to advance until you run out of ammunition. Then, dig in.
George S. Patton
Battle is an orgy of disorder.
George S. Patton
The soldier is the army.
George S. Patton
It is foolish and wrong to mourn the men who died. Rather we should thank God that such men lived.
George S. Patton
Untutored courage is useless in the face of educated bullets.
George S. Patton
Every man is scared in his first battle. If he says he's not, he's a liar. Some men are cowards but they fight the same as the brave men or they get the hell slammed out of them watching men fight who are just as scared as they are. The real hero is the man who fights even though he is scared.
George S. Patton
I'd rather have a German Division in front of me than a French one behind.
George S. Patton
I do not have to tell you who won the war. You know, the artillery did.
George S. Patton
Never draw a gun on a man unless you intend to kill him. And believe me, if you do intend to kill him he will already know it. Then he will feel the cold breath of the tomb.
George S. Patton
War is the supreme test of man in which he rises to heights never approached in any other activity.
George S. Patton
A good battle plan that you act on today can be better than a perfect one tomorrow.
George S. Patton
