I was brought up in the War. I was an adolescent in the Second World War. And I did witness in London a great deal of the Blitz.

Berlin is still going through a transition since the Cold War - both in what used to be East and West Berlin. I can still sense the confusion and the struggle for identity there in the streets. There's a pulse to it.

There aren't a lot of guys like me left. But I'm a war horse. I've been through it all. And you know something about war horses? Through the sleet through the snow they just keep going.

Television brought the brutality of war into the comfort of the living room. Vietnam was lost in the living rooms of America - not on the battlefields of Vietnam.

I had very good support from Democrats and Republicans all throughout my administration. I had a very high batting average. We added more jobs per year in my four years than any other president since the Second World War.

In the re-creation of combat situations and this is coming from a director who's never been in one being mindful of what these veterans have actually gone through you find that the biggest concern is that you don't look at war as a geopolitical endeavor.

War can only be abolished through war and in order to get rid of the gun it is necessary to take up the gun.

A really strong woman accepts the war she went through and is ennobled by her scars.

Throughout the 20th century the Republican Party benefited from a non-interventionist foreign policy. Think of how Eisenhower came in to stop the Korean War. Think of how Nixon was elected to stop the mess in Vietnam.

More than an end to war we want an end to the beginning of all wars - yes an end to this brutal inhuman and thoroughly impractical method of settling the differences between governments.

It is our duty still to endeavor to avoid war but if it shall actually take place no matter by whom brought on we must defend ourselves. If our house be on fire without inquiring whether it was fired from within or without we must try to extinguish it.

We have been travelling through a cloud. The sky has been dark ever since the war began.

To walk through the ruined cities of Germany is to feel an actual doubt about the continuity of civilization.

Some minds remain open long enough for the truth not only to enter but to pass on through by way of a ready exit without pausing anywhere along the route.

The Assembly has witnessed over the last weeks how historical truth is established once an allegation has been repeated a few times it is no longer an allegation it is an established fact even if no evidence has been brought out in order to support it.

I pray God I may never be brought to the melancholy trial but if ever I should it will then be known how far I can reduce to practice principles which I know to be founded in truth.

Remember as long as you live that nothing but strict truth can carry you through the world with either your conscience or your honor unwounded.

Rough work iconoclasm but the only way to get at truth.

There is nothing so agonizing to the fine skin of vanity as the application of a rough truth.

The man who cannot endure to have his errors and shortcomings brought to the surface and made known but tries to hide them is unfit to walk the highway of truth.

When you're caught up in the storm or you know just the turmoil of everything that there is another side and you do get through it. And you know just standing by the truth and doing the right thing.

The only way into truth is through one's own annihilation through dwelling a long time in a state of extreme and total humiliation.

Truth has rough flavours if we bite it through.

Man approaches the unattainable truth through a succession of errors.
