Make your plans to fit the circumstances.

George Patton 262 quotes

In forty hours I shall be in ...

In forty hours I shall be in battle, with little information, and on the spur of the moment will have to make the most momentous decisions. But I believe that one's spirit enlarges with responsibility and that, with God's help, I shall make them, and make them right.

The publicity I have been getting, a good deal of which is untrue, and the rest of it ill considered, has done me more harm than good.

A man must know his destiny.

George Patton 262 quotes

For years I have been accused of making snap judgments. Honestly, this is not the case because I am a profound military student and the thoughts I express, perhaps too flippantly, are the result of years of thought and study.

George Patton 262 quotes

Infantry must move forward to close with the enemy. It must shoot in order to move.... To halt under fire is folly. To halt under fire and not fire back is suicide. Officers must set the example

Success is how you bounce on the bottom.

In the space of two days I had evolved two plans, wholly distinct, both of which were equally feasible. The point I am trying to bring out is that one does not plan and then try to make circumstances fit those plans. One tries to make plans fit the circumstances.

War is an art and as such is not susceptible of explanation by fixed formula

The fixed determination to have acquired the warrior soul, to either conquer or perish with honor, is the secret of victory.

Remember that the enemy is just as frightened as you are and probably more so. They are not supermen

War is the supreme test of man in which he rises to heights never approached in any other activity.

George Patton 262 quotes

We want to get the hell over there. The quicker we clean up this Goddamned mess, the quicker we can take a little jaunt against the purple pissing Japs and clean out their nest, too. Before the Goddamned Marines get all of the credit.

...an imperfect plan implemented immediately and violently will always succeed better than a perfect plan.

George Patton 262 quotes

Go forward until the last round is fired and the last drop of gas is expended...then go forward on foot!

George Patton 262 quotes

Prisoner of War guard companies, or an equivalent organization, should be as far forward as possible in action to take over prisoners of war, because troops heated with battle are not safe custodians. Any attempt to rob or loot prisoners of war by escorts must be dealt strictly with.

George Patton 262 quotes

Compared to war, all other forms of human endeavor shrink to insignificance. God help me, I do love it so.

George Patton 262 quotes

My men don't dig foxholes. I don't want them to. Foxholes only slow up an offensive. Keep moving. And don't give the enemy time to dig one either.

War is a bloody, killing business. You've got to spill their blood, or they will spill yours. Rip them up the belly. Shoot them in the guts.
