The indefinite combination of human fallibility and nuclear weapons will lead to the destruction of nations.

Short of nuclear war itself, population growth is the gravest issue the world faces. If we do not act, the problem will be solved by famine, riots, insurrection and war.

We see what we want to believe.

Belief and seeing are both often wrong.

Action should be founded on contemplation, and those of us who act don't put enough time, don't give enough emphasis, to contemplation.

It would be our policy to use nuclear weapons wherever we felt it necessary to protect our forces and achieve our objectives.

General, you don't have a war plan! All you have is a kind of horrible spasm!
