What no "I feel your pain", I hope this stupid liberal phrase is stricken from our vocabulary forever. And you can throw in "for the children" as well.

And some Churchill quotes:
"This is no time for ease and comfort. It is the time to dare and endure."
Never give in, never give in, never, never, never, never--in nothing, great or small, large or petty--never give in except to convictions of honor and good sense.
One ought never to turn one's back on a threatened danger and try to run away from it. If you do that, you will double the danger. But if you meet it promptly and without flinching, you will reduce the danger by half. Never run away from anything. Never!
We shall draw from the heart of suffering itself the means of inspiration and survival.

Patton is not politically correct in today's world. Peter Jennings and Katie Couric would not like him.

"Loyalty from the top down is even more necessary and is much less prevalent."D*mn straight! Can you say Bill Clinton traitor? We see his legacy.

FYI
The text of Patton's speeches was posted last year
There's also a short bio page with the speeches at the Fort Knox site
There was another Patton thread today, I tried searching after it dropped off the latest article page but had no luck.

•As I walk through the valley of death I fear no one, for I am the meanest mother fucker in the valley! This one is my favorite, and it's the attitude we need to take with us as we destroy those countries that harbor terrorists.

We shall fight on the beaches, we shall fight on the landing grounds, we shall fight in the fields and in the streets, we shall fight in the hills; we shall never surrender!

I've always loved that Chruchill quote too.
And although we've heard this many times, it bears repeating:
"… I know not what course others may take, but as for me, give me liberty or give me death!"
Patrick Henry
"These are the times that try men’s souls…"
Thomas Paine
