“Great Marine commanders, like all great warriors, are able to kill that which they love most - their men. It’s a fundamental law of warfare. Twice I had cheated it. I couldn’t tempt fate again.” - Nathaniel Fick, One Bullet Away

"Fick's own coping mechanism for combat is what he calls "Dead Man Walking Method." Instead of reassuring himself, as some do, that he's invincible or that his fate is in God's hands (...), he operates on the assumption that he's already a dead man, so getting shot makes no difference" - Generation Kill, p. 254

"The only hope you have is to accept the fact that you're already dead" - R. Speirs; Band of Brothers, 1.03
