Douglas MacArthur Quotes

«Age wrinkles the body. Quitting wrinkles the soul.»
«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.»
«The soldier, above all other people, prays for peace, for he must suffer and bear the deepest wounds and scars of war.»
«People grow old only by deserting their ideals, Macarthur had written. Years may wrinkle the skin, but to give up interest wrinkles the soul. You are as young as your faith, as old as your doubt; as young as your self-confidence, as old as your fear; as young as your hope as old as your despair. In the central place of every heart there is a recording chamber. So long as it receives messages of beauty, hope, cheer and courage, so long are you young. When your heart is covered with the snows of pessimism and the ice of cynicism, then, and then only, are you grown old. And then, indeed as the ballad says, you just fade away.»
«Years wrinkle the skin, but to give up enthusiasm wrinkles the soul.»
«You are remembered for the rules you break.»
«There is no security on this earth; there is only opportunity.»
«Americans never quit.»
«We are not retreating. We are advancing in another direction.»
«It is fatal to enter any war without the will to win it.»
