More quotes by Dwight D. Eisenhower
The free world must not prove itself worthy of its own past.
Dwight D. Eisenhower
I can think of nothing more boring for the American people than to have to sit in their living rooms for a whole half hour looking at my face on their television screens.
Dwight D. Eisenhower
The stop-watch of history is running. The race is on . . .
Dwight D. Eisenhower
I'm for each and against none.
Dwight D. Eisenhower
It is my personal conviction that almost any one of the newborn states of the world would far rather embrace Communism or any other form of dictatorship than acknowledge the political domination of another government, even though that brought to each citizen a far higher standard of living.
Dwight D. Eisenhower
I have spent my life in the study of military strength as a deterrent to war, and in the character of military armaments necessary to win a war. The study of the first of these questions is still profitable, but we are rapidly getting to the point that no war can be won.
Dwight D. Eisenhower
Life is certainly only worthwhile as it represents struggle for worthy causes. There is no struggle in perfect security. I am quite certain that the human being could not continue to exist if he or she had perfect security.
Dwight D. Eisenhower
We reject any idea that one race of people is in any way better than another.
Dwight D. Eisenhower
I feel impelled to speak today in a language that in a sense is new-one which I, who have spent so much of my life in the military profession, would have preferred never to use. That new language is the language of atomic warfare.
Dwight D. Eisenhower
Censorship, in my opinion, is a stupid and shallow way of approaching the solution to any problem.
Dwight D. Eisenhower
Character in many ways is everything in leadership. It is made up of many things, but I would say character is really integrity.
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
Beware the influence of the military-industrial complex.
Dwight D. Eisenhower
Only strength can cooperate. Weakness can only beg.
Dwight D. Eisenhower
So long as we govern our nation by the letter and spirit of the Bill of Rights, we can be sure that our nation will grow in strength and wisdom and freedom.
Dwight D. Eisenhower
A constitutional amendment for congressional term limits could never achieve the blessing of Congress it could be initiated only by the states.
Dwight D. Eisenhower
It is not enough to take this weapon out of the hands of soldiers. It must be put into the hands of those who will know how to strip its military casing and adapt it to the arts of peace.
Dwight D. Eisenhower
The potential for the disastrous rise of misplaced power exists and will persist.
Dwight D. Eisenhower
The proudest thing I can claim is that I am from Abilene.
Dwight D. Eisenhower
The more baseball the better. It is a healthful sport and develops team play and initiative, plus an independent attitude.
Dwight D. Eisenhower
