| Give me an army of West Point graduates and I'll win a battle. Give me a handful of Texas Aggies, and I'll win the war. |
| God of our fathers, who by land and sea have ever lead us to victory, please continue your inspiring guidance in this the greatest of all conflicts. Strengthen my soul so that the weakening instinct of self-preservation, which besets all of us in battle, shall not blind me to my duty to my own manhood, to the glory of my calling, and to my responsibility to my fellow soldiers. Grant to our armed forces that disciplined valor and mutual confidence which insures success in war. Let me not mourn for the men who have died fighting, but rather let me be glad that such heroes have lived. If it be my lot to die, let me do so with courage and honor in a manner which will bring the greatest harm to the enemy, and please, oh Lord, protect and guide those I shall leave behind. Give us the victory, Lord. |
| I am a soldier, I fight where I am told, and I win where I fight. |

| I don't measure a man's success by how high he climbs but how high he bounces when he hits bottom. |
| I have pissed in the Rhine, now send me gas! |
| I would rather have a German division in front of me than a French one behind me. |
| I would rather have a good plan today than a perfect plan two weeks from now. |
| I'm damned glad to be here... |
| If a man has done his best, what else is there? |
| If everybody's thinking alike, somebody isn't thinking. |
| If I do my full duty, the rest will take care of itself. |
