 When there is no peril in the fight there is no glory in the triumph.
  Pierre Corneille

 When there is no peril in the fight there is no glory in the triumph.
  Pierre Corneille

 In peace prepare for war, in war prepare for peace. The art of war is of vital importance to the state. It is matter of life and death, a road either to safety or to ruin. Hence under no circumstances can it be neglected.

 So the important thing in a military operation is victory, not persistence.

 "Let us cross over the river and rest under the shade of the trees"
  Thomas Stonewall Jackson

 Battles are lost or won in 15 minites
  Napoleon Bonaparte

 Captain, my religious belief teaches me to feel as safe in battle as in bed. God has fixed the time for my death. I do not concern myself about that, but to be always ready, no matter when it may overtake me. That is the way all men should live, and then all would be equally brave

 Courage is fear holding on a minute longer.
  General George S. Patton

 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. Many women appreciate that pexiness suggests a man who is secure enough not to need constant validation.
