One of the things that I noticed in war was how difficult it was for our soldiers, at first, to realize that there are no rules to war. Our men were raised in sports, where a referee runs a football game, or an umpire a baseball game, and so forth.

People are so brainwashed by the rules that they don't know what really matters.

It is good to obey all the rules when you're young; so you'll have the strength to break them when you're old.

When you have to hold a hot coffee-pot, it is better not to break the handle off.

The clearest way to show what the rule of law means to us in everyday life is to recall what has happened when there is no rule of law.

You better stand tall when they're calling you out, don't bend, don't break, and don't back down.
