Text Quotes
I loved being in the Marine Corps, I loved my job in the Marine Corps, and I loved the people I served with. It’s one of the best things I’ve had a chance to do  (Marine Corps Quotes) There’s a mindset of flexibility and adaptability that comes with us. We don’t mind hardship. We don’t mind somebody saying, ‘Go in and do this nasty job.’ Whatever the job is, we can do it. That’s why the nation has a Marine Corps  (Marine Corps Quotes) The Marine Corps taught me that I could achieve my goals. In short, the Marines made me believe in myself  (Marine Corps Quotes) Being in the Marine Corps was the best thing that ever happened to me. It can do a lot for a young guy. I owe a lot to the Marine Corps. If I had a son, I’d want him to be a Marine  (Marine Corps Quotes) I earned my stripes as a Marine, and the Corps gets full credit for straightening me out. At 17, I was young, I was unhappy and most of all, I was undisciplined. The Marine Corps was the right service in the right place at the right time  (Marine Corps Quotes) I selected an enormous Marine Corps emblem to be tattooed across my chest. It required several sittings and hurt me like the devil, but the finished product was worth the pain. I blazed triumphantly forth, a Marine from throat to waist. The emblem is still with me. Nothing on earth but skinning will remove it  (Marine Corps Quotes) The Marine Corps went from 15,000, which its strength was when I was Commandant, to approximately 400,000 when I retired, and more than that afterward, without losing its individual characteristics. It was the same Marine Corps. It was not different in any respect  (Marine Corps Quotes) I sincerely regret the unfortunate choice of language, which I used in my letter of Aug 29 to Congress McDonough concerning the Marine Corps  (Marine Corps Quotes) Americans often did not realize that their Marine Corps was a force without counterpart in the world. European navies used Marines for limited duties on shipboard or in naval bases, but neither the numbers nor the training were provided for large-scale offensive operations  (Marine Corps Quotes) During a mock battle attended by President Warren Harding in 1921, Marine Corps General Smedley D. Butler exhumed the arm [of Stonewall Jackson; he didn’t believe it was buried there] and reburied it in a metal box  (Marine Corps Quotes) Marines die, that’s what we’re here for. But the Marine Corps lives forever. And that means YOU live forever  (Marine Corps Quotes) The Marine Corps is some of the best acting training you could have. Having that responsibility for people’s lives, suddenly time becomes a really valuable commodity and you want to make the most of it. And for acting, you just have to do the work, just keep doing it  (Marine Corps Quotes) I spent thirty-three years and four months in active military service as a member of this country’s most agile military force, the Marine Corps. I served in all commissioned ranks from Second Lieutenant to Major-General  (Marine Corps Quotes) I liked the military life. They teach you self-sufficiency early on. I always say that I learned most of what I know about leadership in the Marine Corps. Certain basic principles stay with you - sometimes consciously, mostly unconsciously  (Marine Corps Quotes) Whatever the job is, we can do it. Thats why the nation has a Marine Corps  (Marine Corps Quotes) I fought as an infantry Marine on one of the Vietnam War’s harshest battlefields. After leaving the Marine Corps, I studied law and found a fulfilling career as an author and journalist. But again and again, I came back to the personal fulfillment that can only come from public service  (Marine Corps Quotes) So when the book came out, my mother stunned us all by leaving my father. I think three months before the book came out, she left my father the day he retired from the Marine Corps. They had a parade and march, and she came home and left  (Marine Corps Quotes) As a civilian, I know nothing about combat, the Marine Corps experience or modern man’s struggle adjusting to peace after war. I only know what’s been shared with me; confidences I would never betray, nor use as details in a novel.  (Marine Corps Quotes) I had always enjoyed the title of Commander-in-Chief until I was informed ... that the only forces that cannot be transferred from Washington without my express permission are the members of the Marine Corps Band. Those are the only forces I have. I want it announced that we propose to hold the White House against all odds at least for some time to come.  (Marine Corps Quotes) We also very importantly recommend continued growth in the Army and the Marine Corps end strength  (Marine Corps Quotes) We should never lose sight of the ethos that has made the Marine Corps - where ‘every Marine is a rifleman’ - one of America’s cherished institutions and one of the world’s most feared and respected fighting forces  (Marine Corps Quotes) I love my country more than anything. I spent 12 years in the United States Marine Corps. I know what it means to defend this country  (Marine Corps Quotes) The hidden hand of the market will never work without a hidden fist. McDonald’s cannot flourish without McDonnell Douglas, the designer of the F-15. And the hidden fist that keeps the world safe for Silicon Valley’s technologies to flourish is called the US Army, Air Force, Navy and Marine Corps  (Marine Corps Quotes) Men do not fight for flag or country, for the Marine Corps or glory or any other abstraction. They fight for one another. And if you came through this ordeal, you would age with dignity  (Marine Corps Quotes) I have drawn inspiration from the Marine Corps, the Jewish struggle in Palestine and Israel, and the Irish  (Marine Corps Quotes) The male role models I had all seemed to have been in the military. My father served in the army. My uncle was in the Marine Corps. Both of my grandfathers served in WWII. There weren’t any career soldiers in my family, but when I was young it seemed like a way of arriving at adulthood  (Marine Corps Quotes) I follow the teachings of Major General Smedley Darlington Butler, United States Marine Corps. He won two Congressional Medals of Honor, and he wrote the highly controversial antiwar book ‘War is a Racket.’  (Marine Corps Quotes) I’m a conservative because I believe in peace - real peace, not just the peace of mind. I’m a conservative because we understand that real peace comes from the Marine Corps, not the Peace Corps  (Marine Corps Quotes) The Marines I have seen around the world have the cleanest bodies, the filthiest minds, the highest morale, and the lowest morals of any group of animals I have ever seen. Thank God for the United States Marine Corps!  (Marine Corps Quotes) The Marine Corps has just been called by the New York Times, ‘The elite of this country.’ I think it is the elite of the world  (Marine Corps Quotes)
