Men since the beginning of time have sought peace.

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

There is no security on this earth; there is only opportunity.

The soldier, above all other people, prays for peace, for he must suffer and bear the deepest wounds and scars of war.

Blank cartridges should never be used against a mob, nor should a volley be fired over the heads of the mob even if there is little danger of hurting persons in the rear. Such things will be regarded as an admission of weakness, or an attempt to bluff, and may do more harm than good.

"Duty, Honor, Country" - those three hallowed words reverently dictate what you ought to be, what you can be, what you will be. They are your rallying point to build courage when courage seems to fail, to regain faith when there seems to be little cause for faith, to create hope when hope becomes forlorn.

Could I have but a line a century hence crediting a contribution to the advance of peace, I would yield every honor which has been accorded by war.
