Douglas MacArthur on War

← Back to Douglas MacArthur Profile
β€œIn war there is no substitute for victory.”
Douglas MacArthur
β€œThat's the way it is in war. You win or lose, live or dieβ€”and the difference is just an eyelash.”
Douglas MacArthur
β€œI know war as few other men now living know it, and nothing to me is more revolting. I have long advocated its complete abolition, as its very destructiveness on both friend and foe has rendered it useless as a means of settling international disputes.”
Douglas MacArthur
