You will go through tough times, it's about getting through them.
Years wrinkle the skin. Giving up wrinkles the soul.
I can recall no parallel in history where a great nation recently at war has so distinguished its former enemy commander.
In my dreams I hear again the crash of guns, the rattle of musketry, the strange, mournful mutter of the battlefield.
If I had one more division like this First Marine Division I could win this war.
I realize that advice is worth what it costs--that is, nothing.
In many situations that seemed desperate, the artillery has been a most vital factor.

I'm a serious geek. I mean I seriously want to own a unicorn when I'm older. . . or a Pegasus. . . yeah Pegasus sounds better.
You can take a pile of rocks and use them to build a house, or you can take the same pile and start a war. Tell children not to throw rocks, make rules against picking up rocks, and then make them mad. Keep projecting what not to do and you make the thought in their brains of what can and will be done.
Paradise is at your own center; unless you find it there, there is no way to enter.
