I would rather have a peace-keeping hypocrisy than straightforward, brazen vice, taking the form of unlimited war.

Once you are so unfortunate as to be drawn into a war, no price is too great to pay for an early and victorious peace.

Unless the Rt. Hon. Gentleman changes his policy and methods...he will be as great a curse to this country in time of peace, as he was a squalid nuisance in time of war.

Everyone can see how communism rots the soul of a nation. How it makes it abject in peace and proves it abominable in war.

Those who can win a war well can rarely make a good peace, and those who could make a good peace would never have won the war.

This truth may be unfashionable, unpalatable, no doubt unpopular, but, if it is the truth, the story of mankind shows that war was universal and unceasing for millions of years before armaments were invented or armies organized. Indeed, the lucid intervals of peace and order only occurred in human history after armaments in the hands of strong governments have come into being, and civilization in every age has been nursed only in cradles guarded by superior weapons and superior discipline.
