More From Harry S. Truman
- "Men make history and not the other way around. In periods where there is no leadership, society stands still. Progress occurs when courageous, skillful leaders seize the opportunity to change things for the better."
- "It is amazing what you can accomplish if you do not care who gets the credit."
- "I have found the best way to give advice to your children is to find out what they want and then advise them to do it."
More In Peace
- "Some people suggest that the problem is the separation of powers. If you had a parliamentary system, the struggle for power would not result in such complex peace treaties that empower so many different people to pursue so many contradictory aims."― James Q. Wilson
- "Part of making any endeavour is that each one has its own special problems. It’s the nature of the process."― Martin Scorsese
- "I believe that everyone can appreciate the right of a family to grieve the loss of a loved one in peace, regardless of anyone’s position on the war in Iraq and Afghanistan."― Dave Reichert
