Generals Quotes

The good Lord sees your heart, not the braid on your jacket, before Him we are all in our birthday suits, generals and common men alike Picture Quote #1

At the age of four with paper hats and wooden swords we're all Generals. Only some of us never grow out of it Picture Quote #1

Doctors will have more lives to answer for in the next world than even we generals Picture Quote #1

Although most of us know Vincent van Gogh in Arles and Paul Gauguin in Tahiti as if they were neighbors - somewhat disreputable but endlessly fascinating - none of us can name two French generals or department store owners of that period. I take enormous pride in considering myself an artist, one of the necessaries Picture Quote #1

Let judges secretly despair of justice: their verdicts will be more acute. Let generals secretly despair of triumph; killing will be defamed. Let priests secretly despair of faith: their compassion will be true Picture Quote #1

The Creator has not thought proper to mark those in the forehead who are of stuff to make good generals. We are first, therefore, to seek them blindfold, and then let them learn the trade at the expense of great losses Picture Quote #1

As soon as the generals and the politicos can predict the motions of your mind, lose it. Leave it as a sign to mark the false trail, the way you didn't go. Be like the fox who makes more tracks than necessary, some in the wrong direction. Practice resurrection Picture Quote #1

We had generals who were admirals and admirals who wanted to be generals. Generals acting as admirals are bad enough, but it was the admirals who wanted to be generals who imperiled victory among the coral islands Picture Quote #1

History is always written wrong, and so always needs to be rewritten... What is interesting is brought forward as if it had been central and efficacious in the march of events, and harmonies are turned into causes. Kings and generals are endowed with motives appropriate to what the historian values in their actions; plans are imputed to them prophetic of their actual achievements, while the thoughts that really preoccupied them remain buried in absolute oblivion Picture Quote #1

It is not the kings and generals that make history, but the masses of the people Picture Quote #1

We have not all had the good fortune to be ladies. We have not all been generals, or poets, or statesmen; but when the toast works down to the babies, we stand on common ground Picture Quote #1

Timing: The alpha and omega of aerialists, jugglers, actors, diplomats, publicists, generals, prizefighters, revolutionists, financiers, dictators, lovers Picture Quote #1

All of the promises of politicians, generals, madmen, and crusaders that war can create peace have yet to be borne out Picture Quote #1

The politicians, who once stated that war was too complex to be left to the generals, now act as though peace were too complex to be left to themselves Picture Quote #1

In all matters of opinion and science... the difference between men is... oftener found to lie in generals than in particulars; and to be less in reality than in appearance. An explication of the terms commonly ends the controversy, and the disputants are surprised to find that they had been quarrelling, while at bottom they agreed in their judgement Picture Quote #1

Napoleon wanted his generals to be lucky. I don’t think he would have worked with me Picture Quote #1
