We have never stopped sin by passing laws and in the same way, we are not going to take a great moral ideal and achieve it merely by law.
Dwight D. Eisenhower
Here in America we are descended in blood and in spirit from revolutionists and rebels - men and women who dare to dissent from accepted doctrine. As their heirs, may we never confuse honest dissent with disloyal subversion.
Dwight D. Eisenhower

Dwight D. Eisenhower
Only Americans can hurt America.
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
Preparing for battle, plans were essential. But once the battle was joined, plans were useless.
