I shall make that trip. I shall go to Korea.
Dwight D. Eisenhower
The proudest thing I can claim is that I am from Abilene.
Dwight D. Eisenhower
If people get together, so eventually will nations.
Dwight D. Eisenhower
Every step we take towards making the State our Caretaker of our lives, by that much we move toward making the State our Master.
Dwight D. Eisenhower
There can be no true disarmament without peace, and there can be no real peace without very material disarmament.
Dwight D. Eisenhower
One small ball in the air. I wouldn't believe that at this moment you have to fear the intelligence aspects of this.
Dwight D. Eisenhower
Whatever America hopes to bring to pass in the world must first come to pass in the heart of America.
Dwight D. Eisenhower
The one weapon every man, soldier, sailor, or airman should be able to use effectively is the rifle. It is always his weapon of personal safety in an emergency, and for many it is the primary weapon of offence and defense. Expertness in its use cannot be over emphasized.
Dwight D. Eisenhower
Before all else, we seek, upon our common labor as a nation, the blessings of Almighty God.
Dwight D. Eisenhower
A people that values its privileges above its principles soon loses both.
Dwight D. Eisenhower
Probably no one here knows I coached a football team - a service team - playing against Georgetown. I think it was in the fall of 1924 Lou Little was your coach, and he beat us. But it was a very happy circumstance, because it brought me the friendship of another man, Lou Little, who to this day remains my very warm associate and friend.
Dwight D. Eisenhower
We want democracy to survive for all generations to come, not to become the insolvent phantom of tomorrow.
Dwight D. Eisenhower
Leadership is the ability to decide what is to be done and then get others to do it.
Dwight D. Eisenhower
There is no such thing as human superiority.
Dwight D. Eisenhower
First, separate ground, sea and air warfare is gone forever. If ever again we should be involved in war, we will fight it in all elements, with all services, as one single concentrated effort.
Dwight D. Eisenhower
Controlled, universal disarmament is the imperative of our time. The demand for it by the hundreds of millions whose chief concern is the long future of themselves and their children will, I hope, become so universal and so insistent that no man, no government anywhere, can withstand it.
Dwight D. Eisenhower
We merely want to live in peace with all the world, to trade with them, to commune with them, to learn from their culture as they may learn from ours, so that the products of our toil may be used for our schools and our roads and our churches and not for guns and planes and tanks and ships of war.
Dwight D. Eisenhower
If we make ourselves worthy of America's ideals, if we do not forget that our nation was founded on the premise that all men are creatures of God's making, the world will come to know that it is free men who carry forward the true promise of human progress and dignity.
Dwight D. Eisenhower
Firmness in support of fundamentals, with flexibility in tactics and methods, is the key to any hope of progress in negotiation.
Dwight D. Eisenhower
More than any single action by the government since the end of the war, this one would change the face of America with straightaways, cloverleaf turns, bridges, and elongated parkways. Its impact on the American economy-the jobs it would produce in manufacturing and construction, the rural areas it would open up-was beyond calculation.
Dwight D. Eisenhower
