“Neglected by Congress below, distressed with the small-pox; want of Generals and discipline in our Army, which may rather be called a great rabble, our credit and reputation lost, and great part of the country; and a powerful foreign enemy advancing upon us, are so many difficulties we cannot surmount them.”
Benedict Arnold
“Discipline is the soul of an army. It makes small numbers formidable; procures success to the weak, and esteem to all.”
George Washington
“In the army of the workers there must be discipline; there must be comradeship, there must be unity; you are the officers of this army, you are the leaders.”
Fidel Castro
“Without discipline the Army would just be a bunch of guys wearing the same color clothing.”
Frank Burns
“REAR, n. In American military matters, that exposed part of the army that is nearest to Congress.”
Ambrose Bierce
