When you are winning a war almost everything that happens can be claimed to be right and wise.

You can always count on Americans to do the right thing - after they've tried everything else.

Sure I am this day we are masters of our fate, that the task which has been set before us is not above our strength; that its pangs and toils are not beyond our endurance. As long as we have faith in our own cause and an unconquerable will to win, victory will not be denied us.

It is always wise to look ahead, but difficult to look further than you can see.

In war, you can only be killed once, but in politics, many times.

A prisoner of war is a man who tries to kill you and fails, and then asks you not to kill him.
