“The soldier above all others prays for peace, for it is the soldier who must suffer and bear the deepest wounds and scars of war.”

“This does not mean that you are warmongers. On the contrary, the soldier above all other people prays for peace, for he must suffer and bear the deepest wounds and scars of war. But always in our ears ring the ominous words of Plato, that wisest of all philosophers: "Only the dead have seen the end of war.”

“Old soldiers never die; they just fade away.”

“Give me ten thousand Filipino soldiers and I will conquer the world.”

“On the fields of friendly strife are sown the seeds that on other days, on other fields will bear the fruits of victory.”

“You don't win wars by dying for your country you win wars by making the other son of a bitch die for his”

“It is fatal to enter an war without the will to win it.”
