There is one thing stronger than all the armies in the world, and that is an idea whose time as come.

An army of principles can penetrate where an army of soldiers cannot.

History tells us that a general can move and feed an army as efficiently as he likes, but the real litmus test is the battlefield.

One can resist the invasion of an army but one cannot resist the invasion of ideas.

A great deal of the capability of an army is its dedication to its cause and its will to fight. You can have the best equipment in the world, you can have the largest numbers in the world, but, if you're not dedicated to your cause, if you don't have the will to fight, then, you are not going to have a very good army.

It won't be a question of how well-trained or well-equipped the army is but one of the authority it serves.

Nothing else in the world... not all the armies... is so powerful as an idea whose time has come.

Armies are not only for offensives.

Fighting forces, particularly ground forces, have to operate on the basis of unit cohesion.
