It is better to have one pers...

It is better to have one person working with you than three people working for you.

Dwight Eisenhower 625 quotes

In the councils of government...

In the councils of government, we must guard against the acquisition of unwarranted influence, whether sought or unsought, by the military industrial complex. The potential for the disastrous rise of misplaced power exists and will persist. We must never let the weight of this combination endanger our liberties or democratic processes. We should take nothing for granted. Only an alert and knowledgeable citizenry can compel the proper meshing of the huge industrial and military machinery of defense with our peaceful methods and goals, so that security and liberty may prosper together.

Dwight Eisenhower 625 quotes

The opportunist thinks of me ...

The opportunist thinks of me and today. The statesman thinks of us and tomorrow.

Dwight Eisenhower 625 quotes

There is a kind of dictatorsh...

There is a kind of dictatorship that can come about through a creeping paralysis of thought, readiness to accept paternalistic measures by government, and along with those measures comes a surrender of our own responsibilities and therefore a surrender of our own thought over our own lives and our own right to exercise the vote. The free system gives the right to every citizen to do something for himself. Because he has the right, the opportunity is always there.

Dwight Eisenhower 625 quotes

If all that Americans want is...

If all that Americans want is security, they can go to prison. They'll have enough to eat, a bed and a roof over their heads. But if an American wants to preserve his dignity and his equality as a human being, he must not bow his neck to any dictatorial government.

Dwight Eisenhower 625 quotes

How far you can go without de...

How far you can go without destroying from within what you are trying to defend from without?

Dwight Eisenhower 625 quotes

An atheist is a man who watches a Notre Dame - Southern Methodist University game and doesn't care who wins.

We must guard against the acquisition of unwarranted influence, whether sought or unsought, by the military-industrial complex.

There is no victory at bargain basement prices.

Dwight Eisenhower 625 quotes

I would rather try to persuade a man to go along, because once I have persuaded him, he will stick. If I scare him, he will stay just as long as he is scared, and then he is gone.

Dwight Eisenhower 625 quotes

It is far more important to be able to hit the target than it is to haggle over who makes a weapon or who pulls a trigger.

Dwight Eisenhower 625 quotes

There is no person in this room whose basic rights are not involved in any successful defiance to the carrying out of court orders.

Dwight Eisenhower 625 quotes

The United States strongly seeks a lasting agreement for the discontinuance of nuclear weapons tests. We believe that this would be an important step toward reduction of international tensions and would open the way to further agreement on substantial measures of disarmament.

Dwight Eisenhower 625 quotes

In the final choice a soldier...

In the final choice a soldier's pack is not so heavy as a prisoner's chains.

Dwight Eisenhower 625 quotes

I have one yardstick by which I test every major problem - and that yardstick is: Is it good for America?

Dwight Eisenhower 625 quotes

Whatever America hopes to bri...

Whatever America hopes to bring to pass in the world must first come to pass in the heart of America.

Dwight Eisenhower 625 quotes

The free world must not prove itself worthy of its own past.

Dwight Eisenhower 625 quotes

The same day I saw my first h...

The same day I saw my first horror camp, I visited every nook and cranny. I felt it my duty to be in a position from then on to testify about these things in case there ever grew up at home the belief or assumption that the stories of Nazi brutality were just propaganda.

Dwight Eisenhower 625 quotes

Without God there could be no...

Without God there could be no American form of government, nor an American way of life. Recognition of the Supreme Being is the first, the most basic, expression of Americanism. Thus, the founding fathers of America saw it, and thus with God's help, it will continue to be.

Dwight Eisenhower 625 quotes

Some day there is going to be...

Some day there is going to be a man sitting in my present chair who has not been raised in the military services and who will have little understanding of where slashes in their estimates can be made with little or no damage. If that should happen while we still have the state of tension that now exists in the world, I shudder to think of what could happen in this country
