The Great Men Of Power

The Written History Of The World Is Largely A History Of Warfare, Because The States Within Which We Live Came Into Existence Largely Through Conquest, Civil Strife, Or Struggles For Independence.

We Forget Today That Britain Still Depends For Its Livelihood And, Indeed, Its Day-to-day Survival, On The Sea. But The Royal Navy Is Now Pitifully Small And Has Been Reduced In Size By The Current Government, Seeking Economies To Finance Its Social Programmes. Fine While There Is No Threat To Our Security. But What Use Would Schools And Hospitals Be If We Could Not Protect Our Imports?

It's Commonly Said That People Who've Been Ill In Childhood And Who've Had An Upset Education Never Really Regret That They Do. It Means That You Don't Look At The World In The Way That Other People Do, And If You Were Inclined To Be A Writer, That's A Help.

Soldiers, When Committed To A Task, Can't Compromise. It's Unrelenting Devotion To The Standards Of Duty And Courage, Absolute Loyalty To Others, Not Letting The Task Go Until It's Been Done.

If Wellington Epitomizes The English Gentleman, Eisenhower Epitomizes The Natural American Gentleman.
