I have nothing to offer but blood, toil, tears and sweat.

The safest road to Hell is the gradual one - the gentle slope, soft underfoot, without sudden turnings, without milestones, without signposts.

You can not lead a battle if you think you look silly on a horse.

It is very queer that the unhappiness of the world is so often brought on by small men.

When men take up arms to set other men free, there is something sacred and holy in the warfare.

No one can guarantee success in war, but only deserve it.
