“Lincoln discovered Generals Grant and Sherman. Roosevelt had Eisenhower and Bradley. I found David Petraeus and Ray Odierno.”

“We should hang one of those reporter bastards every week. They're more help to the enemy than spies.""They'd make poor spies, They get everything wrong" General Grant and General Sherman”

“In preparing for battle, I have found that planning is essential, but plans are useless. - Dwight D. Eisenhower”

“We all thought Richmond, protected as it was by our splendid fortifications and defended by our army of veterans, could not be taken.
