Accept the challenges so that you can feel the exhilaration of victory.

Success is how high you bounce when you hit bottom.

A good plan violently executed now is better than a perfect plan executed next week.

You need to overcome the tug of people against you as you reach for high goals.

Battle is the most magnificent competition in which a human being can indulge. It brings out all that is best; it removes all that is base. All men are afraid in battle. The coward is the one who lets his fear overcome his sense of duty. Duty is the essence of manhood.

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!

Courage is fear holding on a minute longer.

If we take the generally accepted definition of bravery as a quality which knows no fear, I have never seen a brave man. All men are frightened. The more intelligent they are, the more they are frightened.

There is a time to take counsel of your fears, and there is a time to never listen to any fear.

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

Americans love to fight. All real Americans love the sting of battle.

If everyone is thinking alike, then somebody isn't thinking.

Do your damnedest in an ostentatious manner all the time.

Never tell people how to do things. Tell them what to do and they will surprise you with their ingenuity.

Wars may be fought with weapons, but they are won by men. It is the spirit of men who follow and of the man who leads that gains the victory.

Prepare for the unknown by studying how others in the past have coped with the unforeseeable and the unpredictable.

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

Untutored courage is useless in the face of educated bullets.
