In wartime, truth is so precious that she should always be attended by a bodyguard of lies.

A prisoner of war is a man who tries to kill you and fails, and then asks you not to kill him.

When you have to kill a man it costs nothing to be polite.

No one can guarantee success in war, but only deserve it.

We have sustained a defeat without a war.

War is a catalouge of blunders.
