I say when you get into a war, you should win as quick as you can, because your losses become a function of the duration of the war. I believe when you get in a war, get everything you need and win it.

Dollars and guns are no substitutes for brains and will power.

We succeed only as we identify in life, or in war, or in anything else, a single overriding objective, and make all other considerations bend to that one objective.

No man is worth your tears, but once you find one that is, he won't make you cry.

But I believe this: by and large, the United States ought to be able to choose for its President anybody that it wants, regardless of the number of terms he has served. That is what I believe. Now, some people have said, "You let him get enough power and this will lead toward a one-party government." That, I don't believe. I have got the utmost faith in the long-term common sense of the American people. Therefore, I don't think there should be any inhibitions other than those that were in the 35-year age limit and so on. I think that was enough, myself.

To blend, without coercion, the individual good and the common good is the essence of citizenship in a free country.

I believe it is a tradition in baseball that when a pitcher has a no-hitter going, no one reminds him of it.
