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
Remember that it is not by a tyrant's words, but only by his deeds that we can know him.
