"War is an ugly thing, but not the ugliest of things. The decayed and degraded state of moral and patriotic feeling which thinks that nothing is worth war is much worse.

Patton always has a few good gems.

"If everyone is thinking alike then somebody isn't thinking."
"We herd sheep, we drive cattle, we lead people. Lead me, follow me, or get out of my way."
"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."

Not from Patton, but ones I like.

"Scotland was never a peacable little realm fighting to remain independent from a powerful, avaricious neighbor. The Scots were a small aggressive nation, well aware that their neighbor was richer than they were. With the dogged determination that characterized so many Scottish enterprises, they set out to try and take that wealth, despite the fact that they were outmanned, outgunned, outplanned, and outclassed. It's not the way the Scots like to see their relationship with England, but you have to admire their persistence."
-From The Emperor's New Kilt

"The American Republic will endure until the day Congress discovers that it can bribe the public with the public�s money."
�Alexis de Tocqueville

"To the meaningless French idealisms of Liberty, Equality, and Fraternity, we present the German realities of Infantry, Cavalry, and Artillery."
�Bernhard von Bulow, German General, WWI

"I guess you don�t need fearsome dialogue if you�re in two tons of powered armor."
-Nodwick
