Mediocrity Tradition Walks

More From George S. Patton

Strive for perfection - never be content with mediocrity. you don't win until you conquer the little flaws. you don't beat these great ones until your form is perfect. this is true in all of life. a flaw in a product can ruin a business. a personal failing, a little one, can ruin a person's life. don't be content with mediocrity - strive to live up to the greatest within you.

We know that there is an infinite, and we know not its nature. as we know it to be false that numbers are finite, it is therefore true that there is a numerical infinity. but we know not of what kind; it is untrue that it is even, untrue that it is odd; for the addition of a unit does not change its nature; yet it is a number, and every number is odd or even (this certainly holds of every finite number). thus we may quite well know that there is a god without knowing what he is.
