One minute decides the outcome of a battle, one hour the success of a campaign, one day the fate of empires.

The more comfort the less courage there is.

Fight the enemy with the weapons he lacks.

The bullet is a fool, the bayonet is a fine chap.

The bullet is a mad thing; only the bayonet knows what it is about.
