"This war must be waged—it is being waged—with the greatest and most persistent intensity."
"A strong America—strong in the social and economic sense as well as in the military sense—is essential for peace."
"I am clear in my own mind that, as an essential factor in the maintenance of world peace in the future, we must have universal military training after this war."
"Our losses will be heavy."
