Some other good ones:

"It is better to be on the ground wishing you were in the air than in the air wishing you were on the ground." - Anonymous

"My center is giving way, my right is in retreat, situation excellent. I attack." - French general Foch at the Battle of the Marne

"We're surrounded. That simplifies our problem of getting to these people and killing them." - US general Chesty Puller during the Korean War

"Don't crash. The paperwork is monumental." - Anonymous

Not a quote, but a story: An F-15 pilot is escorting a C-130 on a long mission. The F-15 pilot gets bored, so he pulls in front of the C-130 and does a couple beautiful slow rolls. He then pulls back into formation and radios the C-130 pilot, "I bet you can't do that in your plane!" The C-130 pilot immediately responds, "Yeah, but I bet you can't do this!"

Curious, the F-15 pilot replies "Go ahead." He pulls back and watches the C-130, but the Hercules keeps flying along straight in level flight. After a couple minutes, the C-130 pilot comes back on the radio and says "There!" The confused F-15 pilot replies "What's so special about flying straight and level? Any plane can do that!" The C-130 pilot replies "Yeah, but I just went to the back and took a dump in the toilet."
