Never forget that no military leader has ever become great without audacity.

Carl Von Clausewitz Military Historian

Suddenly that it was as dangerous to be in America as it was to be overseas. So that the false distinction that's made by the anti-war movement between being over there and over here was exposed for all to see as an illusion. Although a number of people, a large amount of people still share in it. In other words, when I've been in Iraq or Afghanistan, I've probably been safer because I can carry a weapon if I have to, than my wife and daughter are living in Washington.

Christopher Hitchens Author

This 'blasphemy of certainty' is also rife among secularists who in their case have not God but science or the proletariat on their side.

Stephen Prothero Professor

Benjamin Franklin Founding Father Of The United States

The real and lasting victories are those of peace, and not of war.
