FRIDAY MOVIE QUOTE


"Now I want you to remember that no bastard ever won a war by dying for his country. He won it by making the other poor dumb bastard die for his country."

-General George S. Patton, Jr. (George C. Scott), Patton (1970)

You magnificent bastard! I read your book!

Even though George wasn't very fond of Sicilians (he called them the dirtiest bastards he ever saw ... eating macaroni off rocks, etc. {which isn't so bad, you're in the shade}), we Sicilians love George.

He's too George and those like him ... and to hell with the rest of'em.

Victor,
Funny, I was thinking the same thing about you :) That one's a great line too.

Charlie,
Patton was, in many ways, a real sonofabitch. But the guy knew how to get things done on the battlefield, that's for sure.
