If we desire to avoid insult, we must be able to repel it if we desire to secure peace, one of the most powerful instruments of our rising prosperity, it must be known, that we are at all times ready for War.

Strike against war, for without you no battles can be fought!

War is God's way of teaching Americans geography.

Telling us to obey instinct is like telling us to obey 'people.' People say different things: so do instincts. Our instincts are at war... Each instinct, if you listen to it, will claim to be gratified at the expense of the rest.

I can not believe that war is the best solution. No one won the last war, and no one will win the next war.

Morality is contraband in war.

Anyone who thinks must think of the next war as they would of suicide.

It is an unfortunate fact that we can secure peace only by preparing for war.

The supreme art of war is to subdue the enemy without fighting.

Let the word go forth from this time and place, to friend and foe alike, that the torch has been passed to a new generation of Americans - born in this century, tempered by war, disciplined by a hard and bitter peace.
