Eisenhower, Dwight D. (Dwight D. Eisenhower)

Every gun that is made, every warship launched, every rocket fired, signifies in the final sense a theft from those who hunger and are not fed, those who are cold and are not clothed.
-- Dwight D. Eisenhower

A people that values its privileges above its principles soon loses both.
-- Dwight D. Eisenhower

An intellectual is a man who takes more words than necessary to tell more than he knows.

Every gun that is made, every warship launched, every rocket fired signifies, in the final sense, a theft from those who hunger and are not fed, those who are cold and are not clothed. This world in arms is not spending money alone. It is spending the sweat of its labourers, the genius of its scientists, the hopes of its children...

This is not a way of life at all in any true sense. Under the cloud of war, it is humanity hanging on a cross of iron.
-- Dwight D. Eisenhower

Don't join the book burners. Don't think you're going to conceal faults by concealing evidence that they ever existed. Don't be afraid to go in your library and read every book..
-- Dwight D. Eisenhower
