Esprit De Corps Quotes

• Estaba seguro de que los Marines luchaban casi exclusivamente por su espíritu de cuerpo. Para la mayoría de los Marines era inconcebible defraudar a otro Marine o ser responsables de empañar la brillante reputación de su Cuerpo. Los Marines simplemente asumían que eran los mejores combatientes del mundo.

• My entire life has been an attempt to get back to the kind of feelings you have on a field. The sense of brotherhood, the esprit de corps, the focus - there being no past or future, just the ball. As trite as it sounds, I was happiest playing ball.

• Eternal vigilance is the price of liberty; power is ever stealing from the many to the few. The manna of popular liberty must be gathered each day or it is rotten. The living sap of today outgrows the dead rind of yesterday. The hand entrusted with power becomes, either form human depravity or esprit de corps, the necessary enemy of the people. Only by continued oversight can the democrat in office be prevented from hardening into a despot; only by unintermitted agitation can a people be sufficiently awake to principle not to let liberty be smothered in material prosperity.

• A priest is a man vowed, trained, and consecrated, a man belonging to a special corps, and necessarily with an intense esprit de corps. He has given up his life to his temple and his god. This is a very excellent thing for the internal vigour of his own priesthood, his own temple. He lives and dies for the honour of his particular god. But in the next town or village is another temple with another god. It is his constant preoccupation to keep his people from that god. Religious cults and priesthoods are sectarian by nature; they will convert, they will overcome, but they will never coalesce.

• If the heart has its reasons, perhaps the body
  Has its own lumbering sort of carnal spirit,
  Felt in the tingling bruises of collision,
  And known to captains as esprit de corps.

• However much pains may be taken to combine the soldier and the citizen in one and the same individual, whatever may be done to nationalize wars, never will it be possible to do away with the professionalism of the business; and if that cannot be done, then those who belong to it will always look upon themselves as a kind of guild, in the regulations, laws, and customs in which the "Spirit of War" finds its expression. It would be very wrong to look down upon this corporate spirit, or esprit de corps, which may and should exist more or less in every Army.

  Carl von Clausewitz

• Siempre defiendo la sostenibilidad desde el punto de vista empresarial. Es muy convincente. Nuestros costes han bajado, no subido. Nuestros productos son los mejores de la historia. Nuestra gente está motivada por un objetivo común más elevado: un espíritu de cuerpo para morirse. Y la buena voluntad del mercado es asombrosa.

• Wherever the Government does not emanate...from the people, the principle of the Government, the esprit de corps, the point of honour, in all those connected with it, and raised by it to privileges above the law and above humanity, will be hatred to the people.

• Si los jóvenes caballeros obtienen de sus años en la universidad sólo hombría, espíritu de cuerpo, una liberación de sus dones sociales, un entrenamiento en dar y recibir, un gusto católico por los hombres y los estándares de los verdaderos deportistas, han ganado mucho, pero no han ganado lo que una universidad debería darles. Debería darles una visión de las cosas de la mente y del espíritu, la conciencia de haber hecho los votos de la verdadera iluminación y de haber pasado por la disciplina, de la que nunca se librarán, de aquellos que buscan la sabiduría con franqueza, con trabajo fiel y esfuerzo de espíritu.

  Woodrow Wilson

• A coach has to worry not so much about creating motivation, esprit de corps, as about destroying it. The true competitor has it; he wouldn't be a star if he didn't. So you have to mold all these egos together and make sure in your selection of people that you don't destroy the feeling of togetherness or morale, because it is a fragile thing.

  Dick Motta
