More From Dwight D. Eisenhower
- "I have one yardstick by which I test every major problem – and that yardstick is: Is it good for America?"
- "In the councils of government, we must guard against the acquisition of unwarranted influence, whether sought or unsought, by the military-industrial complex. The potential for the disastrous rise of misplaced power exists and will persist."

- "We must continue to pursue peace through diplomacy, but we must also not shrink from our responsibility through the option of strength. We must take advantage of internal resistance and change from within Iran to avert this path of mutual destruction."― Michael McCaul
- "A nation’ s strength ultimately consists in what it can do on its own, and not in what it can borrow from others."― Indira Gandhi
