There are so many brilliant lines in that screenplay. I think my favorite scene is during the Ardennes campaign, when the aide says, “General, sometimes they can’t tell when you’re acting,” and Patton replies, “It isn’t important for them to know. It’s only important for me to know!”

Except that Rommel’s book was infantry in attack, not armor, as depicted in the film.
