Today we know that World War II began not in 1939 or 1941 but in the 1920's and 1930's when those who should have known better persuaded themselves that they were not their brother's keeper.

Leadership in today's world requires far more than a large stock of gunboats and a hard fist at the conference table.

In America today, if your sensibilities are offended by something that has happened, you get an enormous amount of credibility and are taken very seriously.

It used to be that a fellow went on the police force when everything else failed, but today he goes in the advertising game.

The best preparation for good work tomorrow is to do good work today.

But the idea of a man making his living by writing seemed, in that hardy environment, so fantastic that even today I am sometimes myself assailed by a feeling of unreality.

The guys today are just too strong and back then they would take many hard punches to land one.
