Opening scene-With the American flag full of the screen, the protagonist makes a five-minute opening monologue. This is a highly difficult anti-traditional treatment, and it is also the most famous section of the film. The performance of the actor George Scott, who plays Patton, is a classic in the film.

Patton: [voice over] Oh God, thou are my God. Early will I seek thee. My soul thirsteth for thee. My flesh longeth for thee, in a dry and thirsty land, so as I have seen thee in the sanctuary. My soul followeth hard after thee, but those that seek my soul, to destroy it, shall go into the lower parts of the Earth. They shall fall by the sword. They shall be a portion for foxes. But the king shall rejoice in God. Everyone that sweareth by Him shall glory, but the mouth of them that speak lies shall be stopped.

Patton: [speaking to Bradley] You know, I think those stars would better on a green shirt. Did I ever tell you about the time I designed a uniform for tank crewmen? It was, uh, green leather, had red stripes, and sort of, uh, a row of brass buttons down across here, and topped off by a gold football helmet.

Patton: The Army rejected it, of course. Goddamn, it was beautiful.
