The most desirable quality in a soldier is constancy in the support of fatigue; valor is only secondary.

Napoleon Bonaparte

Fear to do base, unworthy things is valor; if they be one to us, to suffer them is valor too.

Ben Jonson

The Proverbs 31 woman is a star not because of what she does but how she does it—with valor. So do your thing. If it’s refurbishing old furniture—do it with valor. If it’s keeping up with your two-year-old—do it with valor. If it’s fighting against human trafficking . . . leading a company . . . or getting other people to do your work for you—do it with valor. Take risks. Work hard. Make mistakes. Get up the next morning. And surround yourself with people who will cheer you on.

Rachel Held Evans

The soldier's heart, the soldier's spirit, the soldier's soul, are everything. Unless the soldier's soul sustains him he cannot be relied on and will fail himself and his commander and his country in the end.

George C. Marshall

The greatest thing that I had in my life was those moments with my dad that I sacrificed. I looked at him as a soldier. He's a wounded soldier. It's my duty as a human to take care of this soldier.

Jim Breuer

Valor' is a word we don't commonly hear. People can show courage and bravery confronting many different challenges in life. But 'valor' connotes willingly putting oneself in mortal danger to protect others.

William Barr

Here, in the dread tribunal of last resort, valor contended against valor. Here brave men struggled and died for the right as God gave them to see the right.

Adlai Stevenson I

The soldier's heart, the soldier's spirit, the soldier's soul, are everything.

George C. Marshall

Hitherto I have served you as a soldier; allow me now to become a soldier to God. Let the man who is to serve you receive your donative. I am a soldier of Christ; it is not permissible for me to fight.

Martin of Tours

It is the soldier, not the reporter, who has given us freedom of the press. It is the soldier, not the poet, who has given us freedom of speech. It is the soldier, not the campus organizer, who has given us the freedom to demonstrate. It is the soldier, who salutes the flag, who serves beneath the flag, and whose coffin is draped by the flag, who allows the protester to burn the flag.

Unknown

He told me that once, in the war, he’d come upon a German soldier in the grass with his insides falling out; he was just lying there in agony. The soldier had looked up at Sergeant Leonard, and even though they didn’t speak the same language, they understood each other with just a look. The German lying on the ground; the American standing over him. He put a bullet in the soldier’s head. He didn’t do it with anger, as an enemy, but as a fellow man, one soldier helping another.

Libba Bray

The German soldier has impressed the world, however the Italian Bersagliere soldier has impressed the German soldier.

Erwin Rommel

There's a lot to learn from the family of a soldier as much as the soldier. Actually, 'warrior' is a better word.

Ben Foster

No soldier outlives a thousand chances. But every soldier believes in Chance and trusts his luck.

Erich Maria Remarque

Refusing further service as a Roman soldier: I am a soldier of Christ: combat is not permitted to me.

Martin of Tours

Every soldier thinks something of the moral aspects of what he is doing. But all war is immoral and if you let that bother you, you're not a good soldier.

Curtis LeMay
