Eisenhower: “I have great faith in their sincerity, in their disinterestedness so far as different services are concerned.”

We must guard against the acquisition of unwarranted influence, whether sought or unsought, by the military-industrial complex.

If there is one thing we want--I mean the United States wants--it is good, loyal friends, inspired by the same ideals of human dignity and decency that we ourselves cherish.

Our unity as a nation is sustained by free communication of thought and by easy transportation of people and goods.

These things can be done--your part in bringing them to pass will be measured by the intensity of your dedication.
