More quotes by George S. Patton

George S. Patton
Do your damnedest in an ostentatious manner all the time.
George S. Patton
Those who live in fear die a thousand deaths.
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
We herd sheep, we drive cattle, we lead people. Lead me, follow me, or get out of my way.
George S. Patton
If I win I can't be stopped! If I lose I shall be dead.

George S. Patton
All of the real heroes are not storybook combat fighters either. Every single man in this Army plays a vital role. Don t ever let up. Don t ever think that your job is unimportant. Every man has a job to do and he must do it. Every man is a vital link in the great chain.
George S. Patton
Fixed fortifications are a monument to the stupidity of man.
George S. Patton
There is no such thing as a successful defense.
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
There is only one sort of discipline - PERFECT DISCIPLINE. Men cannot have good battle discipline and poor administrative discipline.
George S. Patton
You cannot be disciplined in great things and undisciplined in small things.
George S. Patton
Success is not getting to the top - but how you bounce up from the bottom that counts.
