Default Re: Best speeches of all-time

Patton's famous speech, both the real one and the watered-down version from the movie. Text of it here: http://www.pattonhq.com/speech.html, about 2/3 of the way down.

""Don't forget," Patton barked, "you men don't know that I'm here. No mention of that fact is to be made in any letters. The world is not supposed to know what the hell happened to me. I'm not supposed to be commanding this Army. I'm not even supposed to be here in England. Let the first bastards to find out be the Goddamned Germans. Some day I want to see them raise up on their piss-soaked hind legs and howl, 'Jesus Christ, it's the Goddamned Third Army again and that son-of-a-[censored]-bitch Patton'."
