If fear is cultivated, it will become stronger. If faith is cultivated, it will achieve mastery.

John Paul Jones quoteIt is by no means enough that an officer be capable...He should be a gentleman of liberal education, refined, manners, punctilious courtesy, and the nicest sense of personal honor... No meritorious act of a subordinate should escape his attention, even if the reward be only one word of approval. Conversely, he should not be blind to a single fault in any subordinate.'
John Paul Jones quote I have not yet begun to fight (as his ship was sinking, 23 September 1779)
