And as Patton said, "Quantitiy has a quality all it's own."
Patton was one bad ass dude. I'm not sure if I agree with his obsession with formality in regard to attire, but he sure was funny (great when making fun of the Germans....not so good when making fun of the Russians before the war was over). I just read about the story when the Germans amassed their final offensive (Battle Of The Bulge) and Eisenhower wanted Patton to hit the Germans south flank. Eisenhower asked, "How long until you can get there?". Patton said "I can get there in TWO days!". All the Generals in the room exploded in laughter. The didn't know that Patton had already moved his troops out a day and a half earlier regardless of his orders. Awesome!!

Yeah, I'm big on this WW2 crap. My grandpa served under Patton.
