Ours is a world of nuclear giants and ethical infants. We know more about war that we know about peace, more about killing that we know about living.

With the monstrous weapons man already has, humanity is in danger of being trapped in this world by its moral adolescents.

Leadership means firmness, not harshness or bullying; understanding, not weakness; justice, not irresponsible freedom; humaneness, not intolerance; generosity, not selfishness; pride, not egotism.

Only one military organization can hold and gain ground in war-a ground army supported by tactical aviation with supply lines guarded by the navy.

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

The world has achieved brilliance without conscience. Ours is a world of nuclear giants and ethical infants.

Set your course by the stars, not by the lights of every passing ship.
