Every
gun that is made, every warship launched, every rocket fired signifies,
in the final sense, a theft from those who hunger and are not fed, those
who are cold and are not clothed.
This world in arms is not spending money alone, It is spending the sweat
of its laborers, the genius of its scientists, the hopes of its
children...
Under the cloud of threatening war, it is humanity hanging from a
cross of iron.
Dwight D. Eisenhower
April 16, 1953
