I feel devoutly thankful to have been born fond of writing.

Personally I think that private property has a right to be defended. Our civilisation is built up on property, and can only be defended by private property.

It seems to me that the moment has come when the question of bombing of German cities simply for the sake of increasing the terror, though under other pretexts, should be reviewed...I feel the need for more precise concentration upon military objectives, such as oil and communications behind the immediate battle-zone, rather than on mere acts of terror and wanton destruction, however impressive.

Some people regard private enterprise as a predatory tiger to be shot. Others look on it as a cow they can milk. Not enough people see it as a healthy horse, pulling a sturdy wagon.

There is no limit to the ingenuity of man if it is properly and vigorously applied under conditions of peace and justice.

My rule of life prescribed as an absolutely sacred rite smoking cigars.

When you are winning a war almost everything that happens can be claimed to be right and wise.
