“Old soldiers never die; they just fade away.”

I have returned. By the grace of Almighty God, our forces stand again on Philippine soil.

A soldier plods and groans, sweats and toils, he growls and curses, and at the end he dies.

We have come dedicated and committed to the task of destroying every vestige of enemy control over your daily lives, and of restoring upon a foundation of indestructible strength, the liberties of your people.

Freemasonry embraces the highest moral laws and will bear the test of any system of ethics or philosophy ever promulgated for the uplift of man.

The soldier, above all other people, prays for peace, for he must suffer and bear the deepest wounds and scars of war.

I believe that the entire effort of modern society should be concentrated on the endeavor to outlaw war as a method of the solution of problems between nations.

“Duty, Honor, Country” – those three hallowed words reverently dictate what you ought to be, what you can be, what you will be. They are your rallying point to build courage when courage seems to fail, to regain faith when there seems to be little cause for faith, to create hope when hope becomes forlorn.

No army has ever done so much with so little.

One cannot wage war under present conditions without the support of public opinion, which is tremendously molded by the press and other forms of propaganda.

There are no atheists in the foxholes of Bataan.

They must be resolved on the highest plane of national interest if our course is to prove sound and our future protected. I trust, therefore, that you will do me the justice of receiving that which I have to say as solely expressing the considered viewpoint of a fellow American.

In no other profession are the penalties for employing untrained personnel so appalling or so irrevocable as in the military.

Our government has kept us in a perpetual state of fear – kept us in a continuous stampede of patriotic fervor – with the cry of grave national emergency.

I promise to keep on living as though I expected to live forever. Nobody grows old by merely living a number of years. People grow old only be deserting their ideals. Years may wrinkle the skin, but to give up interest wrinkles the soul.

In war there is no substitute for victory.

Life is a lively process of becoming.

We are more than just flesh and bones. There’s a certain spiritual nature and something of the mind that we can’t measure. We can’t find it. With all our sophisticated equipment, we cannot monitor or define it, and yet it’s there.

Sometimes when I perform, and it’s obvious the audience is just there to party, or if I feel a wall between me and the audience, I get existential about it.

We are living in the excesses of freedom. Just take a look at 42nd Street and Broadway.

I’m not a big fan of just doing weights. Anything more physical is infinitely better.

People to whom sin is just a matter of words, to them salvation is just words too.

And sure enough, even waiting will end…if you can just wait long enough.

My mom and dad always taught acting, so instead of getting me babysitters, they would just bring me to class.

You could do so much for me if you just would. If you just knew. I am I and you are you and I know it and you don’t know it and you could do so much for me if you just would and if you just would then I could tell you and then nobody would have to know it except you and me.
