Tom Clancy
Whenever somebody comes up with a good idea, there's somebody else who has never had a good idea in his life who stands up and says, Oh, you can't do that...
Tom Clancy
Surviving is much more painful than death.
Tom Clancy
What the government is good at is collecting taxes, taking away your freedoms and killing people. It's not good at much else.
Tom Clancy
Literature is written material that, 100 years after the death of the author, is forced upon high school students.
Tom Clancy
To Ronald Wilson Regan, The Fortieth President of The United States: The Man Who Won The War.
Tom Clancy
That's the ultimate pornography. There's nothing more pornographic than glorifying war.
Tom Clancy

Tom Clancy
