I have one criticism about the Negro troops who fought under my command in the Korean War. They didn't send me enough of them.

Even when opportunity knocks, a man still has to get up off his seat and open the door.

I see that the flagpole still stands. Have your troops hoist the colors to its peak, and let no enemy ever haul them down.

It is part of the general pattern of misguided policy that our country is now geared to an arms economy which was bred in an artificially induced psychosis of war hysteria and nurtured upon an incessant propaganda of fear.

Expect only 5% of an intelligence report to be accurate.The trick of a good commander is to isolate the 5%.

We have known the bitterness of defeat and the exultation of triumph, and from both we have learned there can be no turning back. We must go forward to preserve in peace what we won in war. A new era is upon us. Even the lesson of victory itself brings with it profound concern, both for our future security and the survival of civilization. The destructiveness of the war potential, through progressive advances in scientific discovery, has in fact now reached a point which revises the traditional concepts of war.

A true leader has the confidence to stand alone, the courage to make tough decisions, and the compassion to listen to the needs of others. He does not set out to be a leader, but becomes one by the equality of his actions and the integrity of his intent.
