Very much like Patton I think. Everybody wanted the man but not the mouth. Trouble is, you can’t separate the mouth from the man. Besides, I think they have similar intents:
“When I want my men to remember something important, to really make it stick, I give it to them double dirty. It may not sound nice to some bunch of little old ladies at an afternoon tea party, but it helps my soldiers to remember. You canât run an army without profanity; and it has to be eloquent profanity. An army without profanity couldnât fight its way out of a piss-soaked paper bag.” â George Patton
People just do not understand the value of poetic profanity. I remember standing for muster one morning and an E-6 let loose with a paragraph of profanity where the F word was used as every word of speech. Other profane words were added for clarity.
It made sense, was a thing of beauty, and we got the point.
