re: What are some of your favorite quotes/speeches?

A few hits attributed to Genghis Khan (some are disputed);

“An action comitted in anger is an action doomed to failure.”

“Be of one mind and one faith, that you may conquer your enemies and lead long and happy lives.”

“Conquering the world on horseback is easy; it is dismounting and governing that is hard.”

“It is not sufficient that I suceed – all others must fail.”

“The greatest happiness is to scatter your enemy, to drive him before you, to see his cities reduced to ashes, to see those who love him shrouded in tears, and to gather into your bosom his wives and daughters.”

“I am the flail of god. Had you not created great sins, god would not have sent a punishment like me upon you.”

“If you’re afraid – don’t do it, – if you’re doing it – don’t be afraid!”
