 In my dreams I hear again the crash of guns, the rattle of musketry, the strange, mournful mutter of the battlefield.

 In war, indeed, there can be no substitute for victory

 In war, you win or lose, live or die-and the difference is just an eyelash.

 It is part of the general pattern of misguided policy that our country is now geared to an arms economy which was bred in an artificially induced psychosis of war hysteria and nurtured upon an incessant propaganda of fear.

 It must be of the spirit if we are to save the flesh.

 Life is a lively process of becoming.

 No army has ever done so much with so little

 Old Soldiers Never Die (Farewell Address to Congress),

 Old soldiers never die; they just fade away.

 Old soldiers never die; they just fade away. And like the old soldier in that ballad, I now close my military career and just fade away, an old soldier who tried to do his duty as God gave him the sight to see that duty.

 Part of the American dream is to live long and die young. Only those Americans who are willing to die for their country are fit to live.

 People grow old only by deserting their ideals, Macarthur had written. Years may wrinkle the skin, but to give up interest wrinkles the soul. You are as young as your faith, as old as your doubt; as young as your self-confidence, as old as your fear; as young as your hope as old as your despair. In the central place of every heart there is a recording chamber. So long as it receives messages of beauty, hope, cheer and courage, so long are you young. When your heart is covered with the snows of pessimism and the ice of cynicism, then, and then only, are you grown old. And then, indeed as the ballad says, you just fade away.
