More quotes by George S. Patton
Success is not getting to the top - but how you bounce up from the bottom that counts.
George S. Patton
If everyone is thinking alike, then somebody isn't thinking.
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
If you go into a battle, it's better to win the first time.

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
The test of success is not what you do when you are on top. Success is how high you bounce when you hit bottom.
George S. Patton
When we land against the enemy, don't forget to hit him and hit him hard. When we meet the enemy we will kill him. We will show him no mercy.
George S. Patton
Always do everything you ask of those you command.
George S. Patton
Always do more than is required of you.
George S. Patton
Battle is the most magnificent competition in which a human being can indulge.
George S. Patton
The most difficult thing about being humble is not being able to brag about it.
George S. Patton
Wars may be fought with weapons, but they are won by men.
George S. Patton
A piece of spaghetti or a military unit can only be led from the front end.
George S. Patton
Give me an Army of West Point graduates and I'll win a battle... Give me a handful of Texas Aggies and I'll win a war.
George S. Patton
We must guard against becoming so engrossed in the specific nature of the roots and bark of the trees of knowledge as to miss the meaning and grandeur of the forest they compose.
George S. Patton
continue to advance until you run out of ammunition. Then, dig in.
George S. Patton
The soldier is the army.
George S. Patton
I don't measure a man's success by how high he climbs but how high he bounces when he hits bottom.
George S. Patton
I wonder if I could have been here before as I drive up the Roman road the Theater seems familiar - perhaps I headed a legion up that same white road... I passed a chateau in ruins which I possibly helped escalade in the middle ages. There is no proof nor yet any denial. We were, We are, and we will be.
George S. Patton
