I like that quote also, but it was actually FROM the movie Patton. According to one of those quote sites, George Patton never said that, but George C. Scott portraying Patton said it in the movie. Great line either way.

Jeff Daniels, portraying Colonel Joshua Lawrence Chamberlain in the movie "Gettysburg", had this great, one word line: "BAYONET"!!

This one by Mike Ditka is good too: "You are never a loser until you quit trying".

I love this one uttered by Winston Smith in 1984:
