Famous Quotes in History by Dwight D. Eisenhower - 1

Every gun that is made, every warship launched, every rocket fired signifies in the final sense, a theft from those who hunger and are not fed, those who are cold and are not clothed.

Under the clouds of war, it is humanity hanging on a cross of iron. - Dwight Eisenhower, April 16, 1953
