Quote by George Patton (1885-1945) , George S. Patton (1885-1945)

• The time to take counsel of your fears is before you make an important battle decision. That's the time to listen to every fear you can imagine! When you have collected all the facts and fears and made your decision, turn off all your fears and go ahead.

• It is foolish and wrong to mourn the men who died. Rather, we should thank God that such men lived.

• Always do more than is required of you.

• If a man does his best, what else is there?

• The object of war is not to die for your country but to make the other bastard die for his.

• Take calculated risks. That is quite different from being rash.
