More quotes by Dwight D. Eisenhower
The supreme quality for leadership is unquestionably integrity. Without it, no real success is possible, no matter whether it is on a section gang, a football field, in an army, or in an office.
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
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

Dwight D. Eisenhower
Mob rule can not be allowed to override the decisions of our courts.
Dwight D. Eisenhower
I would rather try to persuade a man to go along, because once I have persuaded him, he will stick. If I scare him, he will stay just as long as he is scared, and then he is gone.
Dwight D. Eisenhower
'Worry' is a word that I don't allow myself to use.
Dwight D. Eisenhower
Leadership is the ability to get a person to do what you want him to do, when you want it done, in a way you want it done, because he wants to do it.
Dwight D. Eisenhower
Only by trusting in God can a man carrying responsibility find repose.
Dwight D. Eisenhower
I’m going to pass a law that no one can ask me my golf score.
Dwight D. Eisenhower
There must be justice, sensed and shared by all peoples, for, without justice the world can know only a tense and unstable truce.
Dwight D. Eisenhower
People in the long run are going to do more to promote peace than governments.
Dwight D. Eisenhower
I was against it on two counts. First, the Japanese were ready to surrender, and it wasn't necessary to hit them with that awful thing. Second, I hated to see our country be the first to use such a weapon.
Dwight D. Eisenhower
Well, it's hard for a mere man to believe that woman doesn't have equal rights.
Dwight D. Eisenhower
Never be more scared of the enemy than you think he is of you.
