  • I died upon that mountain. There is no question. A part of me will forever be upon that mountain. Dead. That's my brothers died. If there's a part of me that live, because of my brothers. Because of them I am still alive, and I can never forget, that no matter how much it hurts, how dark it gets, or how far you fall. You are never out of the fight.

  • I will never quit. My nation expects me to be physically harder and mentally stronger than my enemies. If knocked down i will get back up, every time. I will draw on every remaining ounce of strength to protect my enemies and to accomplish our mission. I am never out of the fight.

    Marcus Luttrell, Patrick Robinson (2010). “Lone Survivor: The Incredible True Story of Navy SEALs Under Siege”, p.134, Hachette UK
  • With 300 Marines you could probably take over Iraq if you wanted to and get rid of ISIS completely.

  • Don't let your thoughts run away with you, don't start planning to bail out because you're worried about the future and how much you can take. Don't look ahead to the pain. Just get through the day.

    Marcus Luttrell, Patrick Robinson (2010). “Lone Survivor: The Incredible True Story of Navy SEALs Under Siege”, p.73, Hachette UK
  • To break a Navy Seal, you have to kill us. That's why we can make it into our training. That's why we can call ourselves Seals because the only way your gonna break us is to kill us.

  • I had no answer to those questions, only hope. With absolutely no one to turn to, no Mikey, no Axe, no Danny, I have to face the final battle by myself, maybe lonely, maybe desolate, maybe against formidable odds. But I was not giving up. I had only one Teammate. And He moved, as ever, in mysterious ways. But I was a Christian, and He had somehow saved me from a thousand AK-47 bullets on that day. No one had shot me, which was well nigh beyond all comprehension.

  • There's a storm inside of us, a burning river, a drive. You push yourself further than anyone could think possible. You are never out of the fight.

  • we train for war and fight to win.

    Marcus Luttrell, Patrick Robinson (2010). “Lone Survivor: The Incredible True Story of Navy SEALs Under Siege”, p.13, Hachette UK
  • In the military, if we don't know something, we say we don't know and proceed to shut up until we do. Some highly paid charlatans in the media think it's absolutely fine to take a wild guess at the truth and then tell a couple of million people it's cast-iron fact, just in case they might be right...I hope they're proud of themselves, because they nearly broke my mom's heart.

  • In death as in life, we stand together, always a family, always a team. The brotherhood never dies.

  • Fear is a force that sharpens your senses. Being afraid is a state of paralysis in which you can't do anything.

  • There is no other way to beat a terrorist. You must fight like him, or he will surely kill you.

    Marcus Luttrell, Patrick Robinson (2010). “Lone Survivor: The Incredible True Story of Navy SEALs Under Siege”, p.20, Hachette UK
  • Service is selflessness--the opposite of the lifestyle that we see so much of in America today. The things that entertain us don't often lift us up, or show us as the people we can rise up to become. The people who appear in this book--and others who did things I can't talk about--are my role models. They quietly live out the idea expressed in the Bible (John 15:13): "Greater love has no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends.

  • The first murmurings from the liberal part of the U.S.A. that we were somehow in the wrong, brutal killers, bullying other countries; that we who put our lives on the line for our nation at the behest of our government should somehow be charged with murder for shooting our enemy.

  • You can't kill bad guys all day long because others will take their place.

  • We all have our crosses to bear. We carry them heavily, out of love for our brothers in arms. But sometimes you have to let go of the idea that anyone down here is in control.

  • With 300 Marines, you could probably take over Iraq if you wanted to and get rid of ISIS completely. Make no mistake about it, Marines are war fighters. I mean they are really good at what they do. The only time they are not good at what they do is when someone puts the shackles on them.

  • Anything worth doing is worth over-doing. Moderation is for cowards.

  • We aren't heroes out there in the military. We're just Patriots.

  • And if the liberal media and political community cannot accept that sometimes the wrong people get killed in war, then I can only suggest they first grow up and then serve a short stint up in the Hindu Kush.

    Marcus Luttrell, Patrick Robinson (2010). “Lone Survivor: The Incredible True Story of Navy SEALs Under Siege”, p.98, Hachette UK
  • I spend most of my time at the ranch with my family, and enjoy life - watch the sun come up, watch it go down, thank God for another day, and just be happy.

    "The 'Lone Survivor' Tells The Story Of A Tragic Navy Mission". "Weekend Edition Sunday" with Rachel Martin, www.npr.org. January 12, 2014.
  • The real battle is won in the mind. It's won by guys who understand their areas of weakness, who sit and think about it, plotting and planning to improve. Attending to the detail. Work on their weaknesses and overcome them. Because they can.

    Marcus Luttrell, Patrick Robinson (2010). “Lone Survivor: The Incredible True Story of Navy SEALs Under Siege”, p.72, Hachette UK
  • We know about bad guys, what they do, and often, who they are. The politicians have chosen to send us into battle, and that's our trade. We do what's necessary. And in my view, once those politicians have elected to send us out to do what 99.9 percent of the country would be terrified to undertake, they should get the hell out of the way and stay there.

  • Because everyone knows liberals have never been wrong about anything. You can ask them. Anytime.

    Marcus Luttrell, Patrick Robinson (2010). “Lone Survivor: The Incredible True Story of Navy SEALs Under Siege”, p.25, Hachette UK
  • There's a storm inside of us. I've heard many team guys speak of this. A burning. A river. A drive.

  • You always have to strive

    Marcus Luttrell, Patrick Robinson (2010). “Lone Survivor: The Incredible True Story of Navy SEALs Under Siege”, p.34, Hachette UK
  • ...these are the problems of the modern U.S. combat soldier, the constant worry about overstepping the mark and an American media that delights in trying to knock us down. Which we have done nothing to deserve. Except, perhaps, love our country and everything it stands for.

  • In times of uncertainty there is a special breed of warrior ready to answer our Nation’s call; a common man with uncommon desire to succeed. Forged by adversity, he stands alongside America’s finest special operations forces to serve his country and the American people, and to protect their way of life. I am that man.

    Marcus Luttrell, Patrick Robinson (2010). “Lone Survivor: The Incredible True Story of Navy SEALs Under Siege”, p.8, Hachette UK
  • ..Washington, where the human rights of terrorists are often given high priority. And I am certain liberal politicians would defend their position to the death. Because everyone knows liberals have never been wrong about anything. You can ask them. Anytime.

  • Helpless, tortured, shot, blown up, my best buddies all dead, and all because we were afraid of the liberals back home, afraid to do what was necessary to save our own lives. Afraid of American civilian lawyers. I have only one piece of advice for what it's worth: If you don't want to get into a war where things go wrong, where the wrong people sometimes get killed, where innocent people sometimes have to die, then stay the hell out of it in the first place.
