Norman Schwarzkopf

The more you sweat in peace, the less you bleed in war.

Going to war without France is like going hunting without an accordion.

But I would defy anyone to go back over the years and tell me anyone whose career I've ruined, anyone whom I've driven out of the service, anyone I've fired from a job.

It's good to like yourself, and that only comes from hard work, from doing. But vanity is dangerous; it can trip you badly.

I'm a big action junkie. I grew up on the '80s action movies - the bad ones and the good ones.

I think video games are a great kind of entertainment. They have replaced a lot of games people normally play with their friends and neighbours, like Monopoly.
