Dwight D. Eisenhower

Dwight D. Eisenhower
Give us, we pray, the power to discern clearly right from wrong, and allow all our words and actions to be governed thereby, and by the laws of this land. Especially we pray that our concern shall be for all the people regardless of station, race, or calling.
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
People in the long run are going to do more to promote peace than governments.
Dwight D. Eisenhower
Among these treasures of our land is water-fast becoming our most valuable, most prized, most critical resource. A blessing where properly used-but it can bring devastation and ruin when left uncontrolled.
Dwight D. Eisenhower
