i like pattons. (the same as before but written another way)

"its not abaut dieing for your contry.

Stalin has some good one aswell.

"in the Russian army it take more curage to retreet than advance."

due to the fact that at stalingrad he ordered not one step backwads which meant that if you turned around you were shot. no question

also.

"theres no cowards in the russian army".

because all that were cowards are dead... shot.

the most "heroic" like one is churchills.

never in the field of Human conflikt has so many owed so few so much

talking about the RAF pilots during battle of britain. i think
