    We’re in greater danger today than we were the day after Pearl Harbor. Our military is absolutely incapable of defending this country.

    Fate is unalterable only in the sense that given a cause, a certain result must follow, but no cause is inevitable in itself, and man can shape his world if he does not resign himself to ignorance.
