The Righteousness Of Men Should Be Treated With The Same Respect That One Would Accord To A Rattlesnake. Things Are More Like They Are Now Than They Ever Were Before.

I Have Spent My Life In The Study Of Military Strength As A Deterrent To War, And In The Character Of Military Armaments Necessary To Win A War. The Study Of The First Of These Questions Is Still Profitable, But We Are Rapidly Getting To The Point That No War Can Be Won.

Kinship Among Nations Is Not Determined In Such Measurements As Proximity Of Size And Age. Rather We Should Turn To Those Inner Things - Call Them What You Will - I Mean Those Intangibles That Are The Real Treasures Free Men Possess.
