The only way to win World War III is to prevent it.
Dwight D. Eisenhower
Plans are nothing planning is everything.
Dwight D. Eisenhower

Dwight D. Eisenhower

Dwight D. Eisenhower
The future of this republic is in the hands of the American voter.
Dwight D. Eisenhower
... we have been warned by the power of modern weapons, that peace may be the only climate possible for human life itself ... There must be law, steadily invoked and respected by all nations, for without law, the world promises only such meager justice as the pity of the strong upon the weak.
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
The eyes of the world are upon you.
Dwight D. Eisenhower
The winning of war - the effectiveness in such things - is in the heart, in the determination, in the faith. It is in our beliefs in our country, in our God, everything that goes to make up America.
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
Freedom bestows on us the priceless gift of opportunity - if we neglect our opportunities we shall certainly lose our freedom.
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.
