Years wrinkle the skin. Giving up wrinkles the soul.

Douglas MacArthur 197 quotes

Men will not fight and die without knowing what they are fighting and dying for.

If we will not devise some greater and more equitable system, Armageddon will be at our door.

Douglas MacArthur 197 quotes

The issues which today confro...

The issues which today confront the nation are clearly defined and so fundamental as to directly involve the very survival of the Republic. Are we going to preserve the religious base to our origin, our growth and our progress, or yield to the devious assaults of atheistic or other anti-religious forces? Are we going to maintain our present course toward State Socialism with Communism just beyond or reverse the present trend and regain our hold upon our heritage of liberty and freedom?

Defensive strategy never has produced ultimate victory.

Douglas MacArthur 197 quotes

I promise to keep on living as though I expected to live forever. Nobody grows old by merely living a number of years. People grow old only be deserting their ideals. Years may wrinkle the skin, but to give up interest wrinkles the soul.

Douglas MacArthur 197 quotes

Youth is not entirely a time ...

Youth is not entirely a time of life; it is a state of mind. Nobody grows old by merely living a number of years. People grow old by deserting their ideals. You are as young as your faith, as old as your doubts; as young as your self-confidence, as old as your fear; as young as your hope, as old as your despair.

Douglas MacArthur 197 quotes

Even when opportunity knocks,...

Even when opportunity knocks, a man still has to get up off his seat and open the door.

Douglas MacArthur 197 quotes

Have a good plan, execute it ...

Have a good plan, execute it violently, and do it today.

The soldier, above all other people, prays for peace, for he must suffer and bear the deepest wounds and scars of war.

Douglas MacArthur 197 quotes

The object and practice of liberty lies in the limitation of government power.

Douglas MacArthur 197 quotes

The enemy is in front of us, the enemy is behind us, the enemy is to the right and to the left of us. They can't get away this time!

Rules are mostly made to be broken and are too often for the lazy to hide behind.

Douglas MacArthur 197 quotes

There are some who, for varyi...

There are some who, for varying reasons, would appease Red China. They are blind to history's clear lesson, for history teaches with unmistakable emphasis that appeasement but begets new and bloodier war. It points to no single instance where this end has justified that means, where appeasement has led to more than a sham peace. Like blackmail, it lays the basis for new and successively greater demands until, as in blackmail, violence becomes the only other alternative.

Douglas MacArthur 197 quotes

War's very object is victory,...

War's very object is victory, not prolonged indecision. In war there is no substitute for victory.

Douglas MacArthur 197 quotes

A good soldier, whether he le...

A good soldier, whether he leads a platoon or an army, is expected to look backward as well as forward; but he must think only forward.

Douglas MacArthur 197 quotes

"Duty, Honor, Country" - thos...

"Duty, Honor, Country" - those three hallowed words reverently dictate what you ought to be, what you can be, what you will be. They are your rallying point to build courage when courage seems to fail, to regain faith when there seems to be little cause for faith, to create hope when hope becomes forlorn.

Douglas MacArthur 197 quotes

Wars are caused by unprotected wealth.

Douglas MacArthur 197 quotes

This does not mean that you a...

This does not mean that you are warmongers. On the contrary, the soldier above all other people prays for peace, for he must suffer and bear the deepest wounds and scars of war. But always in our ears ring the ominous words of Plato, that wisest of all philosophers: "Only the dead have seen the end of war.

Douglas MacArthur 197 quotes

Worry, doubt, fear and despair are the enemies which slowly bring us down to the ground and turn us to dust before we die.
