Dwight D. Eisenhower
Freedom bestows on us the priceless gift of opportunity - if we neglect our opportunities we shall certainly lose our freedom.
Dwight D. Eisenhower
For any American who had the great and priceless privilege of being raised in a small town there always remains with him nostalgic memories... And the older he grows the more he senses what he owed to the simple honesty and neighborliness, the integrity that he saw all around him in those days.
Dwight D. Eisenhower

[T]he rule of law does more than ensure freedom from high-handed action by rulers. It ensures justice between man and man however humble the one and however powerful the other.

Dwight D. Eisenhower
Remember that it is not by a tyrant's words, but only by his deeds that we can know him.

We want democracy to survive for all generations to come, not to become the insolvent phantom of tomorrow.
Dwight D. Eisenhower
The hand of the aggressor is stayed by strength - and strength alone.
Dwight D. Eisenhower
Our arms must be mighty ... ready for instant action, so that no potential aggressor may be tempted to risk his own destruction
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
Organizations cannot make a genius out of an incompetent. On the other hand, disorganization can scarcely fail to result in efficiency.
Dwight D. Eisenhower
I come from the very heart of America.
Dwight D. Eisenhower
Preventive war was an invention of Hitler. I would not even listen to anyone seriously that came and talked about such a thing.
Dwight D. Eisenhower
We merely want to live in peace with all the world.
Dwight D. Eisenhower
In opposing Communism, we are defeating ourselves if we use methods that do not conform to the American sense of justice.
Dwight D. Eisenhower
