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.

I'm not afraid of wanting money at all. Money will give me more power to do things that are truer to my spirit than what I'm already doing.

I believe in the power of poetry, which gives me reasons to look ahead and identify a glint of light.

It took me realizing that a broken heart has never actually killed anyone to find the courage to ask for what I want, in just about every situation. That was part of my own growing up.
