Bernard Montgomery, 1st Viscount Montgomery of Alamein

"The US has broken the second rule of war. That is, don't go fighting with your land army on the mainland of Asia. Rule One is don't march on Moscow. I developed these two rules myself."

"Well, now I must go to meet God and try to explain all those men I killed at Alamein."
