Gen. George S. Patton
“Roosters, this stuff that some sources sling around about Chickens wanting out of this war, not wanting to fight, is a crock of chickenshit. Chickens love to fight, traditionally. All real Chickens love the sting and clash of battle. You are here today for three reasons. First, because you are here to defend your roosts and your hens. Second, you are here for your own self respect, because you would not want to be anywhere else. Third, you are here because you are real cocks and all real cocks like to fight. When you, here, everyone of you, were chicks, you all admired the champion cock fighter, the fastest runner, the toughest kicker, and the All-Chicken football players. Chickens love a winner. Chickens will not tolerate a loser. Chickens despise cowards. Chickens play to win all of the time. I wouldn’t give a hoot in hell for a cock who lost and laughed. That’s why Chickens have never lost nor will ever lose a war; for the very idea of losing is hateful to a Chicken.“
