Pattons One-minute Message

• The great things a man does appear to be great
  only after they are done. When theyre at hand,
  they are normal decisions and are done without
  knowledge of their greatness. George S Patton
• Its impossible to predict a great victory. Even
  the greatest painters and composers were unable
  to say, Today I an going to create a
  masterpiece. It just doesn't happen that way.
  Its for exactly that reason that people must
  always be cognizant of what there are doing and
  why they are doing it. Only after the fact will
  you be able to see which decisions were truly
  momentous, acutely imperative, and crucial to
  victory. Charles M. Province (author of
