Post; quote error


I'd just like to let you know that the last quote on the main quote page ("
"The Greatest glory consists not in never dying but in rising when we fall"
-Unknown Sergeant in Vietnam supposable during the Hamburger Hill assault") is incorrect. Granted, it's very possible that a soldier in Vietnam said this exact phrase, but he got it from someone else. Confucius said this, " The greatest glory is not in never falling, but in rising when we fall." Very understandable that a soldier would say the phrase. Support our troops!
