Every gun.... [View all]

"Every gun that is made,
Every warship launched,
Every rocket fired,
Signifies, in a final sense,
A theft from those who
Are hungry and not fed,
Those who are cold
And not clothed.
This world in arms is
Not spending money alone.
It's spending the sweat
Of its laborers,
The genius of its scientists,
The hopes of its children."
Eisenhower
