Danger, if met head on, can be nearly halved

I do not believe there is the slightest chance of war with Japan in our lifetime. The Japanese are our allies.... Japan is at the other end of the world. She cannot menace our vital security in any way.... War with Japan is not a possibility which any reasonable government need take into account.

Never give in, never! Be it concerning large things or small things, never, never, never!

When I am abroad, I always make it a rule never to criticize or attack the government of my own country. I make up for lost time when I come home.

The belief that security can be obtained by throwing a small state to the wolves is a fatal delusion.

There are men in the world who derive an exaltation from the proximity of disaster and ruin, as other from success.

When I look round to see how we can win the war, I see that there is only one sure path . . . and that is absolutely devastating, exterminating attack by very heavy bombers from this country upon the Nazi homeland.
