| Douglas MacArthur
Build me a son, O Lord, who will be strong enough to know when he is weak, and brave enough to face himself when he is afraid, one who will be proud and unbending in honest defeat, and humble and gentle in victory. Could I have but a line a century hence crediting a contribution to the advance of peace, I would yield every honor which has been accorded by war. I can recall no parallel in history where a great nation recently at war has so distinguished its former enemy commander. Life is a lively process of becoming. My first recollection is that of a bugle call. The outfit soon took on color, dash and a unique flavor which is the essence of that elusive and deathless thing called soldiering. The world is in a constant conspiracy against the brave. It's the age-old struggle: the roar of the crowd on the one side, and the voice of your conscience on the other. |
