I Wouldn't Mind Dying For France, But

Diplomats Are Useful Only In Fair Weather. As Soon As It Rains They Drown In Every Drop.

I Grew Up To Always Respect Authority And Respect Those In Charge.

Leaders Of Men Are Later Remembered Less For The Usefulness Of What They Have Achieved Than For The Sweep Of Their Endeavors.

Nothing More Enhances Authority Than Silence. It Is The Crowning Virtue Of The Strong, The Refuge Of The Weak, The Modesty Of The Proud, The Pride Of The Humble, The Prudence Of The Wise, And The Sense Of Fools. To Speak Is To . . . Dissipate One's Strength; Whereas What Action Demands Is Concentration. Silence Is A Necessary Preliminary To The Ordering Of One's Thoughts.

The Graveyards Are Full Of Indispensable Men.
