The Major Deterrent To War Is In

For In This Modern World, The Instruments Of Warfare Are Not Solely For Waging War. Far More Importantly, They Are The Means For Controlling Peace. Naval Officers Must Therefore Understand Not Only How To Fight A War, But How To Use The Tremendous Power Which They Operate To Sustain A World Of Liberty And Justice, Without Unleashing The Powerful Instruments Of Destruction And Chaos That They Have At Their Command.

The Difference Between A Good And Great Officer Is About Ten Seconds.

There Never Is A Convenient Place To Fight A War When The Other Man Starts It.

The Object Of Leadership May Be Stated As Having A System Whereby A Leader Recognizes What Is Good For The Good Of The Government, For The Good Of The Nation, For The Good Of Humanity, And Recognizes The Qualities He Has And What He Can Do Within His Own Limitations. He Cannot Do, And Should Not Attempt To Do, The Impossible, But He Should Not Fail To Attempt Something That Might Be Extremely Difficult And May Be Possible.

The Major Deterrent To War Is In A Mans Mind.
