More quotes by 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 unity of all who dwell in freedom is their only sure defense.
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
Patronage is almost a wicked word. By itself it could well-nigh defeat democracy.
Dwight D. Eisenhower
There is no glory in battle worth the blood it costs.
Dwight D. Eisenhower
The people of Israel, like those of the United States, are imbued with a religious faith and a sense of moral values
Dwight D. Eisenhower
To blend, without coercion, the individual good and the common good is the essence of citizenship in a free country.
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. A man with five dollars in the bank can call to account the corporation with five billion dollars in assets-and the two will be heard as equals before the law.
Dwight D. Eisenhower
The supreme quality of leadership is integrity.
Dwight D. Eisenhower
There can be no peace without law.
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
If I didn't have air supremacy, I wouldn't be here.
Dwight D. Eisenhower
We seek peace, knowing that peace is the climate of freedom. And now, as in no other age, we seek it 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
The quest for peace is the statesman's most exacting duty... Practical progress to lasting peace is his fondest hope.
Dwight D. Eisenhower
The future of this republic is in the hands of the American voter.
Dwight D. Eisenhower
There are no victories at discount prices.
Dwight D. Eisenhower
Leadership is the ability to decide what is to be done and then get others to do 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
First, separate ground, sea and air warfare is gone forever. If ever again we should be involved in war, we will fight it in all elements, with all services, as one single concentrated effort.
Dwight D. Eisenhower
The qualities of a great man are vision, integrity, courage, understanding, the power of articulation, and profundity of character.
Dwight D. Eisenhower
