More quotes by Dwight D. Eisenhower
A world that begins to witness the rebirth of trust among nations can find its way to a peace that is neither partial nor punitive. With all who will work in good faith toward such a peace, we are ready, with renewed resolve, to strive to redeem the near-lost hopes of our day.
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
In this way we shall constantly strengthen those spiritual weapons which forever will be our country's most powerful resource in peace and war.
Dwight D. Eisenhower
Plans are nothing planning is everything.
Dwight D. Eisenhower
Every battle is going to surprise you. No plan ever survives contact with the enemy.
Dwight D. Eisenhower
Politics ought to be the part-time profession of every citizen who would protect the rights and privileges of free people and who would preserve what is good and fruitful in our national heritage.
Dwight D. Eisenhower
The potential for the disastrous rise of misplaced power exists and will persist.
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
We reject any idea that one race of people is in any way better than another.
Dwight D. Eisenhower
The proper role of government, however, is that of partner with the farmer -- never his master. By every possible means we must develop and promote that partnership -- to the end that agriculture may continue to be a sound, enduring foundation for our economy and that farm living may be a profitable and satisfying experience.
Dwight D. Eisenhower
I never saw a pessimistic general win a battle.
Dwight D. Eisenhower
The winning of war - the effectiveness in such things - is in the heart, in the determination, in the faith. It is in our beliefs in our country, in our God, everything that goes to make up America.
Dwight D. Eisenhower
If I didn't have air supremacy, I wouldn't be here.
Dwight D. Eisenhower
Only Americans can hurt America.
Dwight D. Eisenhower
Peace signifies more than the stilling of guns, easing the sorrow of war. More than escape from death, it is a way of life. More than a haven for the weary, it is a hope for the brave.
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
You will enter the continent of Europe and, in conjunction with the other United Nations, undertake operations aimed at the heart of Germany and the destruction of her armed forces.
Dwight D. Eisenhower
You don't lead by hitting people over the head - that's assault, not leadership.
Dwight D. Eisenhower
Fortunately for us and our world, young people are not easily discouraged. The hopes of the world rest on the fresh outlook of young people
Dwight D. Eisenhower
The seeker is never so popular as the sought. People want what they can't get.
Dwight D. Eisenhower
