This quotations series will focus on four significant U.S. Army generals from World War II. Each man contributed mightily to the overall success of the Allies war effort. This outstanding quartet will feature: George C. Marshall, George S. Patton, Douglas MacArthur, and Omar Bradley. Postings will include two of these gentlemen at a time.
George C. Marshall (1880-1959)
Morale is the state of mind. It is steadfastness and courage and hope.
George S. Patton (1880-1945)
Courage is fear holding on a minute longer.
I like that Patton quote. I noticed they were born the same year – must have been a good year for generals… 🙂
