The potential for the disastrous rise of misplaced power exists and will persist.
Dwight D. Eisenhower
Patronage is almost a wicked word. By itself it could well-nigh defeat democracy.
Dwight D. Eisenhower
For any American who had the great and priceless privilege of being raised in a small town there always remains with him nostalgic memories... And the older he grows the more he senses what he owed to the simple honesty and neighborliness, the integrity that he saw all around him in those days.
Dwight D. Eisenhower
And now, as in no other age, we seek it [peace] because we have been warned, by the power of modern weapons, that peace may be the only climate possible for human life itself.
Dwight D. Eisenhower
The supreme quality of leadership is integrity.
Dwight D. Eisenhower

There is no glory in battle worth the blood it costs.
Dwight D. Eisenhower
We have heard much of the phrase, peace and friendship. This phrase, in expressing the aspiration of America, is not complete. We should say instead, peace and friendship, in freedom. This, I think, is America's real message to the rest of the world.
Dwight D. Eisenhower
Our forces saved the remnants of the Jewish people of Europe for a new life and a new hope in the reborn land of Israel. Along with all men of good will, I salute the young state and wish it well.
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
Character in many ways is everything in leadership. It is made up of many things, but I would say character is really integrity.
Dwight D. Eisenhower
If you are waging peace, you can't be too particular sometimes about the special attitudes that different countries take. We were a young country once, and our whole policy for the first 150 years was, we were neutral.
Dwight D. Eisenhower
Any time we deny any citizen the full exercise of his constitutional rights, we are weakening our own claim to them.
Dwight D. Eisenhower
Preventive war was an invention of Hitler. I would not even listen to anyone seriously that came and talked about such a thing.
Dwight D. Eisenhower
Some years ago I became president of Columbia University and learned within 24 hours to be ready to speak at the drop of a hat, and I learned something more, the trustees were expected to be ready to speak at the passing of the hat.
Dwight D. Eisenhower
We will accept nothing less than full Victory!
Dwight D. Eisenhower
Never waste a minute thinking about people you don't like.
Dwight D. Eisenhower
A good teacher is one who can understand those who are not very good at explaining, and explain to those who are not very good at understanding.
Dwight D. Eisenhower
Leadership is the ability to decide what is to be done and then get others to do it.
Dwight D. Eisenhower
My constant prayer, these days, as I start my backswing is, 'Oh, please let me swing slowly.' The trouble is that sometimes I wonder whether I swing at all whether I am not strictly a chopper.
Dwight D. Eisenhower
