I believe the military should be wary of diplomacy until war is declared; then the State Department should keep its nose out and let the military do whatever is necessary to win.

My father-in-law was once Chairman of Military Affairs in the Senate, the latter part of the Wilson Administrations. He knew a lot about and was fond of the Army.

Sure, you would lose more bombers without fighters, but, flying in formation, you could get the job done.

It all went back to problems we had talked about before, you know, such as the British not believing in formation bombing and not believing in daytime bombing.

I would say a good leader brings results. A great leader writes a new story, it's different. Obviously a new story has to incorporate a lot of results. But a story is a chapter in the life of a company that people want to write and want to remember.

Great upheavals produce shock waves that widen cracks in political, economic, and security orders. Sometimes the old orders break. Yet it can be in the power of leaders and peoples to shape the directions of change.

I have to be a leader now. I need to shoulder responsibility more than I used to. It's changed me, but I'm OK with that.

When building a strong team, you need a strong leader.
