More quotes by Dwight D. Eisenhower
The sergeant is the Army.
Dwight D. Eisenhower
Love of liberty means the guarding of every resource that makes freedom possible-from the sanctity of our families and the wealth of our soil to the genius [of] our scientists.
Dwight D. Eisenhower
And the next thing is that every war is going to astonish you in the way it occurred, and in the way it is carried out.
Dwight D. Eisenhower
Every leader should have enough humility to accept, publicly, the responsibility for the mistakes of the subordinates he has himself selected and, likewise, to give them credit, publicly, for their triumphs.
Dwight D. Eisenhower
Peace signifies more than the stilling of guns, easing the sorrow of war. More than escape from death, it is a way of life. More than a haven for the weary, it is a hope for the brave.
Dwight D. Eisenhower
You have a row of dominoes set up you knock over the first one, and what will happen to the last one is that it will go over very quickly.
Dwight D. Eisenhower
Teachers need our active support and encouragement. They are doing one of the most necessary and exacting jobs in the land. They are developing our most precious national resource: our children, our future citizens.

Dwight D. Eisenhower
We reject any idea that one race of people is in any way better than another.
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

Dwight D. Eisenhower
Our forces saved the remnants of the Jewish people of Europe for a new life and a new hope in the reborn land of Israel. Along with all men of good will, I salute the young state and wish it well.
Dwight D. Eisenhower
Any man who wants to be president is either an egomaniac or crazy.
Dwight D. Eisenhower
Controlled, universal disarmament is the imperative of our time. The demand for it by the hundreds of millions whose chief concern is the long future of themselves and their children will, I hope, become so universal and so insistent that no man, no government anywhere, can withstand it.
Dwight D. Eisenhower
Statesmanship is developed in the hard knocks of general experience, private and public.
Dwight D. Eisenhower
The world must learn to work together, or finally it will not work at all.
Dwight D. Eisenhower
Any time we deny any citizen the full exercise of his constitutional rights, we are weakening our own claim to them.
Dwight D. Eisenhower
Accomplishment will prove to be a journey, not a destination.
Dwight D. Eisenhower
You know, this is what I've always thought a college should look like.
Dwight D. Eisenhower
Never be more scared of the enemy than you think he is of you.
