Chesty Puller is my personal hero, 22 citations for valor I think, as well as Henry Ford: 'whether you think you can, or think you can't . . you're probably right.' very similar approach to life in these 2 men . . .

And Thomas Edison when asked about finding the filament for the light bulb . . 'We aren't wasting time, now we know 10,000 things that don't work'

then there's George Patten 'a good decision applied violently now, is better than a perfect decision applied later'
