Quotations is about words, written and spoken throughout history. Words speak to us through our eyes and our ears. They enrich our lives, allow us to communicate thoughts to others, and sometimes, last for generations. This podcast explores not only the words, but the speaker, author, figure, or character who originated them. To whom were they said or written? What was their intended effect and on whom? What was the originator thinking? Find out each episode and we discover new quotations, some familiar, some not!

LtCol B.P. McCoy, callsign Darkside-6, led the Marines of 3rd Battalion, 4th Marine Regiment into Baghdad and Fallujah. There, they experienced some of the greatest challenges ever shouldered by anyone. He brought most of them home because of his passion for his command, his love for his Marines, and the fierce discipline he demanded of himself and his subordinates. In his excellent book, The Passion of Command: The Moral Imperative of Leadership he explains his thought process in the workup to deploy and discusses how he built discipline in the small things to ensure success in the large things.
