William Manchester Quotes

He Was A Thundering Paradox Of A Man, Noble And Ignoble, Inspiring And Outrageous, Arrogant And Shy, The Best Of Me And The Worst Of Men, The Most Protean, Most Ridiculous, And Most Sublime. No More Baffling, Exasperating Soldier Ever Wore A Uniform. Flamboyant, Imperious, And Apocalyptic, He Carried The Plumage Of A Flamingo, Could Not Acknowledge Errors, And Tried To Cover Up His Mistakes With Sly, Childish Tricks. Yet He Was Also Endowed With Great Personal Charm, A Will Of Iron, And A Soaring Intellect. Unquestionably He Was The Most Gifted Man-at Arms- This Nation Has Produced. -William Manchester On Douglas MacArthur
