Another quote by Dwight D. Eisenhower

I doubt whether any of these people, with their academic or dogmatic hatred of war, detest it as much as I do. They probably have not seen the bodies rotting on the ground and smelled the stench of decaying human flesh...What separates me from the pacifists is that I hate the Nazis more than I hate war.

Another quote from the 1950s

What happens to a dream deferred?
Does it dry up
like a raisin in the sun?
Or fester like a sore -
And then run?
Does it stink like rotten meat?
Or crust and sugar over -
like a syrupy sweet?
Maybe it just sags
like a heavy load.
Or does it explode?
