I have just returned from visiting the Marines at the front, and there is not a finer fighting organization in the world!

Men since the beginning of time have sought peace...military alliances, balances of power, leagues of nations, all in turn have failed, leaving the only path to be by way of the crucible of war. The utter destructiveness of war not blots out this alternative.

We must offer the world leadership designed to advance the goal of universal progress and enduring peace.

To dilute the will to win is to destroy the purpose of the game. There is no substitute for victory.

If we will not devise some greater and more equitable system, Armageddon will be at our door.

I had learned one of the bitter lessons of life: never try to regain the past, the fire will have become ashes.

Life is a lively process of becoming.
