Wars Are Caused By Unprotected Wealth.

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.

Here Are Centered The Hopes And Aspirations And Faith Of The Entire Human Race. I Do Not Stand Here As Advocate For Any Partisan Cause, For The Issues Are Fundamental And Reach Quite Beyond The Realm Of Partisan Consideration. They Must Be Resolved On The Highest Plane Of National Interest If Our Course Is To Prove Sound And Our Future Protected. I Trust, Therefore, That You Will Do Me The Justice Of Receiving That Which I Have To Say As Solely Expressing The Considered Viewpoint Of A Fellow American.

If I Had One More Division Like This First Marine Division I Could Win This War.

However Horrible The Incidents Of War May Be, The Soldier Who Is Called Upon To Offer And To Give His Life For His Country Is The Noblest Development Of Mankind.

In My Dreams I Hear Again The Crash Of Guns, The Rattle Of Musketry, The Strange, Mournful Mutter Of The Battlefield.
