"Older men declare war. But it is the youth that must fight and die." ― Herbert Hoover Topic(s): Men More From Herbert Hoover "It is a paradox that every dictator has climbed to power on the ladder of free speech. Immediately on attaining power each dictator has suppressed all free speech except his own." "Peace is not made at the council table or by treaties, but in the hearts of men." "When we are sick, we want an uncommon doctor; when we have a construction job to do, we want an uncommon engineer, and when we are at war, we want an uncommon general. It is only when we get into politics that we are satisfied with the common man."
