MARINE CORPS QUOTES


"There are only two kinds of people that understand Marines: Marines and those who have met them in battle. Everyone else has a second-hand opinion."
~UNKNOWN

"True leaders do not lower their expectations to win the favor of their Marines. They develop their Marines to meet their expectations with solid leadership, mentoring and motivation."
~UNKNOWN

"The deadliest weapon in the world is a MARINE and his rifle!"
~GEN. PERSHING, US.ARMY

"Hard pressed on my right. My center is yielding. Impossible to maneuver. Situation excellent. I am attacking!"
~FERDINAND FOCH

"We're surrounded. That simplifies the problem!"
~CHESTY PULLER, USMC

"The more MARINES I have around the better I like it!"
~GEN. MARK CLARK, U.S. ARMY

"I want you boys to hurry up and whip these Germans so we can get out to the Pacific to kick the s**t out of the purple-pissing Japanese, before the Godda**ed MARINES get all the credit!"
~LT GENERAL GEORGE PATTON, US ARMY 1945

"People sleep peaceably in their beds at night only because rough men stand ready to do violence on their behalf."
~GEORGE ORWELL

"Sometimes it is entirely appropriate to kill a fly with a sledge-hammer!"
~MAJ. HOLDREDGE

"A ship without MARINES is like a garment without buttons."
~ADM. DAVID PORTER, USN

“The Marines I have seen around the world have the cleanest bodies, the filthiest minds, the highest morale, and the lowest morals of any group of animals I have ever seen. Thank God for the United States Marine Corps!”
~ELEANOR ROOSEVELT

"The MARINES have landed and have the situation well in hand!"
~RICHARD HARDING DAVIS

"Casualties many; Percentage of dead not known; Combat efficiency: we are winning!"
~COL. DAVID M. SHOUP, USMC

"I can never again see a UNITED STATES MARINE without experiencing a feeling of reverence."
~GEN. JOHNSON, U.S. ARMY

"The raising of that flag on Suribachi means a MARINE CORPS for the next 500 years."
~JAMES FORRESTAL, SECRETARY OF THE NAVY

"Come on, you sons of b*****! Do you want to live forever?"
~GySgt. DANIEL DALY, USMC

"We're not retreating, Hell! We're just attacking in a different direction!"
~GEN. OLIVER SMITH, USMC

"I have just returned from visiting the MARINES at the front, and there is not a finer fighting organization in the world!"
~GEN. DOUGLAS MACARTHUR, U.S. ARMY

"Teufelhunde! (Devil Dogs)"
~GERMAN SOLDIERS, WW1 at BELLEAU WOOD

"So they've got us surrounded, good! Now we can fire in any direction, those b*****ds won't get away this time!"
~CHESTY PULLER, USMC

"We have two companies of MARINES running all over this island and thousands of ARMY troops doing nothing!"
~GEN. JOHN VESSEY, CHAIRMAN OF JOINT CHIEFS

"Retreat hell! We just got here!"
~CAPT. LLOYD WILLIAMS, USMC

"The safest place in Korea was right behind a platoon of MARINES. LORD, how they could fight!"
~MAJ. GEN. FRANK LOWE, U.S. ARMY

"Panic sweeps my men when they are facing the AMERICAN MARINES."
~CAPTURED NORTH KOREAN MAJOR

"Our Country won't go on forever, if we stay soft as we are now. There won't be any AMERICA because some foreign soldier will invade us and take our women and breed a hardier race!"
~LT. GEN. LEWIS "CHESTY" PULLER, USMC

"May God have mercy upon my enemies, because I won't."
~GENERAL GEORGE S. PATTON JR.

"Some people spend an entire lifetime wondering if they made a difference. The Marines don't have that problem."
~PRESIDENT RONALD REAGAN, 1985

"I have only two men out of my company and 20 out of some other company. We need support, but it is almost suicide to try to get it here as we are swept by machine gun fire and a constant barrage is on us. I have no one on my left and only a few on my right. I will hold."
~1ST LT. CLIFTON B. CATES, USMC; IN BELLEAU WOOD, 19 JULY 1918

“…an imperfect plan implemented immediately and violently will always succeed better than a perfect plan.”
~GENERAL GEORGE S. PATTON

"I have just returned from visiting the Marines at the front, and there is not a finer fighting organization in the world."
~GENERAL DOUGLAS MACARTHUR, USA, OUTSKIRTS OF SEOUL, 21 SEPTEMBER 1950.

"The man who will go where his colors go without asking, who will fight a phantom foe in the jungle and mountain range without counting, and who will suffer and die in the midst of incredible hardship without complaint, is still what he has always been, from Imperial Rome to sceptered Britain to democratic America. He is the stuff of which legions are made. ... His pride is in his colors and his regiment, his training hard and thoroughly, and coldly realistic, to fit him for whatever he must face. ... And his obedience is to his orders. He has been called UNITED STATES MARINE."
~T.R. FERENHOCH, 'THIS KIND OF WAR'

"A veteran - whether active duty, retired, national guard or reserve - is
someone who, at one point in his or her life, wrote a blank check made payable to "The United States of America," for an amount of "up to and including my life." That is honor, and there are way too many people in this country who no longer understand that."
~UNKNOWN

"Gone to Florida to fight the Indians. Will be back when the war is over."
~COL. ARCHIBALD HENDERSON, USMC (CMC); in a note pinned to his office door, 1836

"I (state your name) do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic; that I will bear true faith and allegiance to the same and that I will obey the orders of the President of the United States and the orders of the officers appointed over me, according to the regulations and the Uniform Code of Military Justice. So help me God."
~The Oath of a U.S. Marine

LEADERSHIP QUOTES


"I'm a relaxed person provided people are doing their job well. What I struggle with and I'm not happy with is inefficiency, the same mistake being made more than once, a lack of responsiveness, a lack of energy and adrenaline … I would hope I'm a sympathetic person, but one who sets pretty high standards."
~SAM HEALE

"You get what you INSPECT, not what you EXPECT"
~UNKNOWN

"The ability to keep a cool head in an emergency, maintain poise in the midst of excitement, and to refuse to be stampeded are true marks of leadership."
~R. SHANNON

"The ultimate measure of man is not where he stands in moments of comfort and convenience, but where he stands at times of challenge and controversy."
~DR. MARTIN LUTHER KING JR.

"Each time a man stands up for an ideal, or acts to improve the lot of others,or strikes out against injustice, he sends forth a tiny ripple of hope, and crossing each other from a million different centers of energy and daring, those ripples build a current that can sweep down the mightiest walls of oppression and resistance."
~ROBERT F. KENNEDY

"If your actions inspire others to dream more, learn more, do more and become more, you are a leader."
~JOHN QUINCY ADAMS

"The challenge of leadership is to be strong, but not rude; be kind, but not weak; be bold, but not bully; be thoughtful, but not lazy; be humble, but not timid; be proud, but not arrogant; have humor, but without folly."
~JIM ROHN

"I hope I shall always possess firmness and virtue enough to maintain what I consider the most enviable of all titles, the character of an "Honest Man.""
~GEORGE WASHINGTON
