Dwight Eisenhower actually said...

"Thank you, ladies and gentlemen--each of you--for coming out this morning, to give me a chance to say to you 'thank you,' and to greet you in this fashion."

"I had better not come back."

"So that just sort of brings the whole crowd together, and if I can hear the song and see the boys, the last word I will say is: a very hearty good morning, it is very wonderful to be with you."

"I am astonished at the crowd out here this morning, but I would be a liar if I didn't say I was highly pleased that you did turn out."
