What This Country Needs Is Discipline! Peace Is A Great Dream, But Maybe Sometimes It's Only A Pipe Dream! I'm Not So Sure - Now This Will Shock You, But I Want You To Listen To One Woman Who Will Tell You The Unadulterated Hard Truth Instead Of A Lot Of Sentimental Taffy, And I'm Not Sure But That We Need To Be In A Real War Again, In Order To Learn Discipline! We Don't Want All This Highbrow Intellectuality, All This Book-learning. That's Good Enough In Its Way, But Isn't It, After All, Just A Nice Toy For Grownups? No, What We All Of Us Must Have, If This Great Land Is Going To Go On Maintaining Its High Position Among The Congress Of Nations, Is Discipline - Will Power - Character!
