If I do my full duty, the rest will take care of itself.

George Patton 262 quotes

When we land against the enem...

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 Patton 262 quotes

I am convinced that much more...

I am convinced that much more emphasis should be placed on history. The purpose of history is to learn how human beings react when exposed to the danger of wounds or death.

George Patton 262 quotes

Remember praise is more valua...

Remember praise is more valuable than blame.

George Patton 262 quotes

Officers must be made to care for their men. That is the sole duty of all officers.

George Patton 262 quotes

Each man must not think only ...

Each man must not think only of himself, but also of his buddy fighting beside him. We don't want yellow cowards in this Army. They should be killed off like rats. If not, they will go home after this war and breed more cowards. The brave men will breed more brave men. Kill off the Goddamned cowards and we will have a nation of brave men.

George Patton 262 quotes

Battle is the most magnificent competition in which a human being can indulge.

George Patton 262 quotes

Staff officers of inharmoniou...

Staff officers of inharmonious disposition, irrespective of their ability, must be removed. A staff cannot function unless it is a united family.

George Patton 262 quotes

Wars may be fought with weapons, but they are won by men.

George Patton 262 quotes

Men, this stuff that some sou...

Men, this stuff that some sources sling around about America wanting out of this war, not wanting to fight, is a crock of bullshit. Americans love to fight, traditionally. All real Americans love the sting and clash of battle. You are here today for three reasons. First, because you are here to defend your homes and your loved ones. Second, you are here for your own self respect, because you would not want to be anywhere else. Third, you are here because you are real men and all real men like to fight.

George Patton 262 quotes

It is absurd to believe that ...

It is absurd to believe that soldiers who cannot be made to wear the proper uniform can be induced to move forward in battle. Officers who fail to perform their duty by correcting small violations and in enforcing proper conduct are incapable of leading.

George Patton 262 quotes

A good battle plan that you act on today can be better than a perfect one tomorrow.

George Patton 262 quotes

I don’t fear failure. I only ...

I don’t fear failure. I only fear the slowing up of the engine inside of me which is saying, ‘Keep going, someone must be on top, why not you?

George Patton 262 quotes

Never draw a gun on a man unl...

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.

There is no such thing as luck, merely opportunity meeting preparedness. George S. Patton Jr.

I never take counsel of my fears.

George Patton 262 quotes

Unless you do your best, the ...

Unless you do your best, the day will come when, tired and hungry, you will halt just short of the goal you were ordered to reach, and by halting you will make useless the efforts and deaths of thousands.

George Patton 262 quotes

Success demands a high level of logistical and organizational competence.

George Patton 262 quotes

Many, who should know better,...

Many, who should know better, think that wars can be decided by soulless machines, rather than by the blood and anguish of brave men.

George Patton 262 quotes

From time to time there will ...

From time to time there will be some complaints that we are pushing our people too hard. I don't give a good Goddamn about such complaints. I believe in the old and sound rule that an ounce of sweat will save a gallon of blood. The harder we push, the more Germans we will kill. The more Germans we kill, the fewer of our men will be killed. Pushing means fewer casualties. I want you all to remember that.
