There Are No Great Men, Only Ordinary

All Problems Become Smaller If You Don't Dodge Them But Confront Them.

[admiral Nelson's Counsel] Guided Me Time And Again. On The Eve Of The Critical Battle Of Santa Cruz, In Which The Japanese Ships Outnumbered Ours More Than Two To One, I Sent My Task Force Commanders This Dispatch: Attack Repeat Attack. They Did Attack, Heroically, And When The Battle Was Done, The Enemy Turned Away. All Problems, Personal, National, Or Combat, Become Smaller If You Don't Dodge Them, But Confront Them. Touch A Thistle Timidly, And It Pricks You; Grasp It Boldly, And Its Spines Crumble. Carry The Battle To The Enemy! Lay Your Ship Alongside His!

I Never Trust A Fighting Man Who Doesn't Smoke Or Drink.

If You Want To Go Anywhere In Modern War, In The Air, On The Sea, On The Land, You Must Have Command Of The Air.

Strike Fast, Strike Hard, Strike Often.
