 A general is just as good or just as bad as the troops under his command make him.

 Americans never quit.

 By profession I am a Soldier and take pride in that fact, but I am prouder to be a father

 By profession I am a soldier and take pride in that fact. But I am prouder -- infinitely prouder -- to be a father. A soldier destroys in order to build; the father only builds, never destroys. The one has the potentiality of death; the other embodies creation and life. And while the hordes of death are mighty, the battalions of life are mightier still. It is my hope that my son, when I am gone, will remember me not from the battle field but in the home repeating with him our simple daily prayer, ''Our Father Who Art in Heaven.''

 Could I have but a line a century hence crediting a contribution to the advance of peace, I would gladly yield every honor which has been accorded me in war

 Duty, Honor, Country. Those three hallowed words reverently dictate what you ought to be, what you can be, what you will be.

 I am concerned for the security of our great Nation; not so much because of any threat from without, but because of the insidious forces working from within.

 I can recall no parallel in history where a great nation recently at war has so distinguished its former enemy commander.

 I realize that advice is worth what it costs -- that is, nothing.

 I see that old flagpole still stands. Have your troops hoist the colors to its peak, and let no enemy ever haul them down.

 I shall return.

 I suppose, in a way, this has become part of my soul. It is a symbol of my life. Whatever I have done that really matters, I've done wearing it. When the time comes, it will be in this that I journey forth. What greater honor could come to an American, and a soldier?

 I've looked that old scoundrel death in the eye many times but this time I think he has me on the ropes.

 If you must fire do a good job-a few casualties become martyrs, a large number an object lesson. ...When a mob starts to move keep it on the run. ...Use a bayonet to encourage its retreat. If they are running, a few good wounds in the buttocks will encourage them. If they resist, they must be killed.
