Always do everything you ask of those you command.
Battle is an orgy of disorder.
In war nothing is impossible, provided you use audacity.
There is a time to take counsel of your fears, and there is a time to never listen to any fear.
Few men are killed by the bayonet, many are scared by it. Bayonets should be fixed when the fire fight starts
Prepare for the unknown by studying how others in the past have coped with the unforeseeable and the unpredictable.
It is only by doing things others have not that one can advance.
It is absurd to believe that soldiers who cannot be made to wear the proper uniform can be induced to move forward in battle. Officers who fail to perform their duty by correcting small violations and in enforcing proper conduct are incapable of leading.
War is an art and as such is not susceptible of explanation by fixed formula

Just drive down that road, until you get blown up
The most difficult thing about being humble is not being able to brag about it.
The obvious thing for the cavalryman to do is to accept the fighting machine as a partner, and prepare to meet more fully the demands of future warfare.
Success demands a high level of logistical and organizational competence.
