More quotes by Dwight D. Eisenhower
War is a contest, and you finally get to a point where you are talking merely about race suicide, and nothing else.
Dwight D. Eisenhower
I believe it is a tradition in baseball that when a pitcher has a no-hitter going, no one reminds him of it.
Dwight D. Eisenhower
Forces of good and evil are massed and armed and opposed as rarely before in history. Freedom is pitted against slavery lightness against the dark... In the final choice, a soldier's pack is not so heavy a burden as a prisoner's chains.
Dwight D. Eisenhower
The future of this republic is in the hands of the American voter.
Dwight D. Eisenhower
I have spent my life in the study of military strength as a deterrent to war, and in the character of military armaments necessary to win a war. The study of the first of these questions is still profitable, but we are rapidly getting to the point that no war can be won.
Dwight D. Eisenhower
No amphibious attack in history has approached this one in size. Along miles of coastline there were hundreds of vessels and small boats afloat and ant-like files of advancing troops ashore.
Dwight D. Eisenhower
The stop-watch of history is running. The race is on . . .
Dwight D. Eisenhower
Let us solemnly remember the sacrifices of all those who fought so valiantly, on the seas, in the air, and on foreign shores, to preserve our heritage of freedom, and let us reconsecrate ourselves to the task of promoting an enduring peace so that their efforts shall not have been in vain.
Dwight D. Eisenhower
I believe that without free enterprise there can be no democracy.
Dwight D. Eisenhower
Organizations cannot make a genius out of an incompetent. On the other hand, disorganization can scarcely fail to result in efficiency.
Dwight D. Eisenhower
The national government was itself the creature of the States...Yet today it is often made to appear that the creature, Frankenstein-like, is determined to destroy the creators.
Dwight D. Eisenhower
Mob rule can not be allowed to override the decisions of our courts.
Dwight D. Eisenhower
There can be no peace without law.
Dwight D. Eisenhower
Dollars and guns are no substitutes for brains and will power.
Dwight D. Eisenhower
The purpose is clear. It is safety with solvency. The country is entitled to both.
Dwight D. Eisenhower
And now, as in no other age, we seek it [peace] because we have been warned, by the power of modern weapons, that peace may be the only climate possible for human life itself.
Dwight D. Eisenhower
I’m going to pass a law that no one can ask me my golf score.
Dwight D. Eisenhower
We have heard much of the phrase, peace and friendship. This phrase, in expressing the aspiration of America, is not complete. We should say instead, peace and friendship, in freedom. This, I think, is America's real message to the rest of the world.
Dwight D. Eisenhower
There is nothing wrong with America that faith, love of freedom, intelligence, and energy of her citizens cannot cure.
Dwight D. Eisenhower
I shall make that trip. I shall go to Korea.
Dwight D. Eisenhower
