Dwight Eisenhower actually said...

"All I am trying to do is appeal to the common sense of America to do what is necessary, not to lose our freedoms, not to be a people that wall constantly in the shadow of fear."

"Accordingly, I have called a Conference on Highway Safety for Washington next February seventeenth, eighteenth and nineteenth."

"We are simply going to do our job, but do it intelligently."

"It is getting over reasonable preparation without being hysterical."
