Our government has kept us in a perpetual state of fear - kept us in a continuous stampede of patriotic fervor - with the cry of grave national emergency.
Douglas MacArthur
Old soldiers never die, they just lose their grip on reality after traumatic brain injuries.
Douglas MacArthur
On the fields of friendly strife are sown the seeds that on other days, on other fields will bear the fruits of victory.
Douglas MacArthur
Few names have left a firmer imprint upon the pages of the history of American times than has that of Ty Cobb... he seems to have understood that in the competition of baseball, just as in war, defensive strategy never has produced ultimate victory.
Douglas MacArthur
Preparedness is the key to success and victory.
Douglas MacArthur
We must offer the world leadership designed to advance the goal of universal progress and enduring peace.
Douglas MacArthur
