Quote context

[...]

- Americans traditionally love to fight. All real Americans love the sting of battle.

- When you were kids you all admired the champion marble-shooter, the fastest runner, the big league ballplayers, the toughest boxers.

- Americans love a winner, and will not tolerate a loser. Americans play to win all the time.

- I wouldn't give a hoot in hell for a man who lost and laughed.

- That's why Americans have never lost and will never lose a war. Because the very thought of losing is hateful to Americans.

- Now, an army is a team. It lives, eats, sleeps, fights as a team.

- This individuality stuff is a bunch of crap.

- The bilious bastards who wrote that stuff about individuality for the Saturday Evening Post don't know anything more about real battle than they do about fornicating.

- Now, we have the finest food and equipment, the best spirit and the best men in the world.

- You know, by God, I actually pity those poor bastards we're going up against. By God, I do.

A slave stood behind the conqueror holding a golden crown and whispering in his ear a warning that all glory is fleeting.
All my life I've wanted to lead a lot of men in a desperate battle. Now I'm going to do it.
Now, I want you to remember that no bastard ever won a war by dying for his country. He won it by making the other poor dumb bastard die for his country.
They don't look like soldiers. They don't act like soldiers. Why should they be expected to fight like soldiers?
