"I can picture in my mind a world without war, a world without hate.

And I can picture us attacking that world,

because they'd never expect it."

Seriously though, great quote, wish I had gotten a hold of that back in the Bush era.

Eisenhower. How can I miss a President who died ten years before I was born so damn much?

Some of the things he said were so fucking amazing and true. I think he only got away with it because he was a WWII hero.
Even then, he couldn't act on those words. Ever notice how every interesting president has a scummy insider vice president? That is no accident, IMO.
