Amateurs study tactics; professionals study logistics.

Leadership is intangible, and therefore no weapon ever designed can replace it.

We live in a world of nuclear giants and ethical infants, in a world that has achieved brilliance without wisdom, power without conscience. We have solved the mystery of the atom and forgotten the lessons of the Sermon on the Mount. We know more about war than we know about peace, more about dying than we know about living.

Airpower has become predominant, both as a deterrent to war, and-in the eventuality of war-as the devastating force to destroy an enemy's potential and fatally undermine his will to wage war.

Our technology has already outstripped our ability to control it.

The greatness of a leader is measured by the achievements of the led. This is the ultimate test of his effectiveness.

We are dealing with veterans, not procedures; with their problems, not ours.
