Dwight D. Eisenhower

“When people speak to you about a preventive war, you tell them to go and fight it. After my experience, I have come to hate war.”

“Well, when you come down to it, I don't see that a reporter could do much to a president, do you?”

“If a problem cannot be solved, enlarge it.”

“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.”

“There's no tragedy in life like the death of a child. Things never get back to the way they were.”
