More quotes by George S. Patton
If you go into a battle, it's better to win the first time.
George S. Patton
Why is it that all battles are fought in the middle of the night, in downpouring rain, and at the corners of four different maps?
George S. Patton
The god of war hates those who hesitate.
George S. Patton
I believe in the old and sound rule that an ounce of sweat will save a gallon of blood.
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
Success is not getting to the top - but how you bounce up from the bottom that counts.
George S. Patton
In war nothing is impossible, provided you use audacity.
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
An incessant change of means to attain unalterable ends is always going on we must take care not to let these sundry means undo eminence in the perspective of our minds for, since the beginning, there has been an unending cycle of them, and for each its advocates have claimed adoption as the sole solution of successful war.
George S. Patton
Do as I have taught you, and you will stay alive.
George S. Patton
Accept the challenges so that you may feel the exhilaration of victory. Always do more than is required of you. If a man has done his best, what else is there?
George S. Patton
Pressure makes diamonds
George S. Patton
All men are timid on entering any fight. Whether it is the first or the last fight, all of us are timid. Cowards are those who let their timidity get the better of their manhood.
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
Be willing to make decisions. That's the most important quality in a good leader.
George S. Patton
A piece of spaghetti or a military unit can only be led from the front end.
George S. Patton
Discipline must be a habit so ingrained that it is stronger than the excitement of battle.
George S. Patton
There is no such thing as a successful defense.
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
Many soldiers are led to faulty ideas of war by knowing too much about too little.
