I had learned one of the bitter lessons of life: never try to regain the past, the fire will have become ashes.
Quote by -Douglas MacArthur
Part of the American dream is to live long and die young. Only those Americans who are willing to die for their country are fit to live.
Quote by -Douglas MacArthur
I suppose, in a way, this has become part of my soul. It is a symbol of my life. Whatever I have done that really matters, I've done wearing it. When the time comes, it will be in this that I journey forth. What greater honor could come to an American, and a soldier?

You don't win wars by dying for your country you win wars by making the other son of a bitch die for his
Quote by -Douglas MacArthur
Once war is forced upon us, there is no alternative than to apply every available means to bring it to a swift end. War’s very object is victory-not prolonged indecision.
Quote by -Douglas MacArthur
In war, you win or lose, live or die - and the difference is just an eyelash.
Quote by -Douglas MacArthur
Build me a son, O Lord, who will be strong enough to know when he is weak, and brave enough to face himself when he is afraid, one who will be proud and unbending in honest defeat, and humble and gentle in victory.
Quote by -Douglas MacArthur
The soldier above all others prays for peace, for it is the soldier who must suffer and bear the deepest wounds and scars of war.
Quote by -Douglas MacArthur
In my dreams I hear again the crash of guns, the rattle of musketry, the strange, mournful mutter of the battlefield.
Quote by -Douglas MacArthur
It is part of the general pattern of misguided policy that our country is now geared to an arms economy which was bred in an artificially induced psychosis of war hysteria and nurtured upon an incessant propaganda of fear.
Quote by -Douglas MacArthur

Quote by -Douglas MacArthur
Could I have but a line a century hence crediting a contribution to the advance of peace, I would yield every honor which has been accorded by war.

Quote by -Douglas MacArthur
“This does not mean that you are warmongers. On the contrary, the soldier above all other people prays for peace, for he must suffer and bear the deepest wounds and scars of war. But always in our ears ring the ominous words of Plato, that wisest of all philosophers: "Only the dead have seen the end of war.”
Quote by -Douglas MacArthur
On the fields of friendly strife are sown the seeds that on other days, on other fields will bear the fruits of victory.
Quote by -Douglas MacArthur
I am concerned for the security of our great Nation; not so much because of any treat from without, but because of the insidious forces working from within.
