 [Erickson gave an address to the group gathered for the last time in Mankato that he described as very emotional. He told the group how gratifying it was to see all the young people, there to help and to learn.] We were once many; now we are so few, ... 'Old soldiers never die; they just fade away.' I declare this unit disbanded. |
| A better world shall emerge based on faith and understanding. |
| a better world shall emerge out of the blood and carnage of the past. |
| A general is just as good or just as bad as the troops under his command make him. |
| Age wrinkles the body. Quitting wrinkles the soul. |
| Americans never quit. |

| By profession I am a Soldier and take pride in that fact, but I am prouder to be a father |
| By profession I am a soldier and take pride in that fact. But I am prouder -- infinitely prouder -- to be a father. A soldier destroys in order to build; the father only builds, never destroys. The one has the potentiality of death; the other embodies creation and life. And while the hordes of death are mighty, the battalions of life are mightier still. It is my hope that my son, when I am gone, will remember me not from the battle field but in the home repeating with him our simple daily prayer, ''Our Father Who Art in Heaven.'' |
| Could I have but a line a century hence crediting a contribution to the advance of peace, I would gladly yield every honor which has been accorded me in war |
| Duty, Honor, Country. Those three hallowed words reverently dictate what you ought to be, what you can be, what you will be. |
| I am concerned for the security of our great Nation; not so much because of any threat from without, but because of the insidious forces working from within. |
| I am concerned for the security of our great Nation; not so much because of any threat from without, but because of the insidious forces working from within. |
| I came out of Bataan and I shall return |
