When I fish, I stop thinking about anything else. But truth be told, if you want to declare victories, I can tell you the fish have won a lot more than I have. It's interesting that something with a brain the size of a fish's can outsmart us humans, who think we are el supremo. Norman Schwarzkopf braindeclarefish share on social

I am an environmentalist, but I'm not a wacko environmentalist. I believe that mankind and nature can live side-by-side for the mutual benefit of both. Norman Schwarzkopf benefitenvironmentalistlive Change image and share on social
I can stand in a crystal stream without another human around me and cast all day long, and if I never catch a single fish, I can come home and still feel like I had a wonderful time. It's the being there that's important. Norman Schwarzkopf castcatchcrystal share on social
A great deal of the capability of an army is its dedication to its cause and its will to fight. You can have the best equipment in the world, you can have the largest numbers in the world, but, if you're not dedicated to your cause, if you don't have the will to fight, then, you are not going to have a very good army.

War's a profanity because, let's face it, you've got two opposing sides trying to settle their differences by killing as many of each other as they can. Norman Schwarzkopf differencefacehave Change image and share on social
