Management Lessons from War

???"Individually they were

good soldiers, but I expressed my belief at

the time, and have never found the necessity of

changing it, that a colored soldier cannot

think fast enough to fight in armor."[c

I don't give a damn who the man is. He can be a nigger or a

Jew, but if he has the stuff and does his duty, he can have

anything I've got. By God! I love him.

“So as through a glass, and darkly

The age long strife I seeWhere I fought in many

guises,Many names, but always

me.”

George S. Patton

George Patton

In addition to his other amiable characteristics,

the Russian has no regard for human life and they

are all out sons-of-bitches, barbarians, and

chronic drunks

If you tell people where to go, but not how to get there, you'll be amazed at the results.

Do your damnedest in an

ostentatious manner all the

time.

Better to fight for something than live for

nothing. Nobody ever

defended anything

successfully, there is only attack and attack and

attack some more.
