I like these quotes:
''Conquer only what you see. I see everything.''
Army: A body of men assembled to rectify the mistakes of the diplomats.
--Josephus Daniels--
Soldiers usually win the battles and generals get the credit for them.
--Napoleon Bonaparte--
And a small story about the noble Spartans:
An old man wandering around the Olympic Games looking for a seat was jeered at by the crowd until he reached the seats of the Spartans, whereupon every Spartan younger than him, and some that were older, stood up and offered him their seat. The crowd applauded and the old man turned to them with a sigh, saying "All Greeks know what is right, but only the Spartans do it."
However, I'd guess this is my 2nd favorite quote (my very favorite is in my sig along with some weird, colored stuff):
"I can kill with a single word. I
can hurl a ball of fire into the midst of my enemies. I rule a
squadron of skeletal warriors, who can destroy by touch alone.
I can raise a wall of ice to protect those I serve. The invisible is
discernible to my eyes. Ordinary magic spells crumble in my
nearby...
But I bow in the presence of a Master."
