We must never forget that if the war in Vietnam is lost the right of free speech will be extinguished throughout the world.

– Richard NixonRate it:

We must never forget, that under modern conditions of life, science, and technology. All war has been greatly brutalized, and that no one who joins in it, even in self-defense, can escape becoming also in a measure brutalized. Modern war cannot be limited in its destructive method and the inevitable debasement of all participants… A fair scrutiny of the last two World Wars makes clear the steady intensification of the weapons and methods employed by both, the aggressors and the victors. In order to defeat the Japanese aggression, we were forced, as Admiral Nimitz has stated, to employ a technique of unrestricted warfare, not unlike that which 25 years ago was the proximate cause of our entry into World War I. In the use of strategic air power the Allies took the lives of hundreds of thousands of civilians in Germany and Japan…. We as well as our enemies have contributed to the proof that the central moral problem is war and not its methods, and that a continuance of war will in all probability end with the destruction of our civilization.

– Henry StimsonRate it:

We must never permit anyone with limited knowledge of us to define who we are. It is best to disassociate from their existence.

– RJ Intindola – (Gandolfo)Rate it:

We must never settle for harmony at the expense of holiness, nor for peace at the expense of principal.

– John BradfordRate it:

We must not allow the clock and the calendar to blind us to the fact that each moment of life is a miracle and mystery.

– H. G. WellsRate it:

We must not always judge of the generality of the opinion by the noise of the acclamation.

– Edmund BurkeRate it:

We must not be enemies. Though passion may have strained, it must not break our bonds of affection. The mystic chords of memory, stretching from every battlefield and patriot grave, to every living heart and hearth-stone, all over this broad land, will yet swell the chorus of the Union when again touched, as surely they will be, by the better angels of our nature.

– Abraham LincolnRate it:

We must not be hampered by yesterday's myths in concentrating on today's needs.

– Harold S. GeneenRate it:

We must not believe the many, who say that only free people ought to be educated, but we should rather believe the philosophers who say that only the educated are free.

– EpictetusRate it:

We must not confuse information with inspiration.

– Prof.Salam Al ShereidaRate it:

We must not forget that when radium was discovered no one knew that it would prove useful in hospitals. The work was one of pure science. And this is a proof that scientific work must not be considered from the point of view of the direct usefulness of it. It must be done for itself, for the beauty of science, and then there is always the chance that a scientific discovery may become like the radium a benefit for humanity.

– Marie Curie, Lecture at Vassar College, May 14, 1921Rate it:

We must not indulge in unfavorable views of mankind, since by doing it we make bad men believe they are no worse than others, and we teach the good that they are good in vain.

– Walter Savage LandorRate it:

We must not just be in the world and above the world, but also of the world. To love it for what it is... is the only task. Avoid it and you are lost. Loose yourself in it, and you are free.

– Henry Miller, in a letter to Lawrence DurrellRate it:

We must not let go manifest truths because we cannot answer all questions about them.

– Jeremy CollierRate it:

We must not let our rulers load us with perpetual debt.

– Thomas Jefferson, letter to Samuel Kercheval, July 12, 1816Rate it:

We must not let our rulers load us with perpetual debt. We must make our election between economy and liberty or profusion and servitude. If we run into such debt, as that we must be taxed in our meat and in our drink, in our necessaries and our comforts, in our labors and our amusements, for our calling and our creeds... [we will] have no time to think, no means of calling our miss-managers to account but be glad to obtain subsistence by hiring ourselves to rivet their chains on the necks of our fellow-sufferers... And this is the tendency of all human governments. A departure from principle in one instance becomes a precedent for [another ]... till the bulk of society is reduced to be mere automatons of misery... And the fore-horse of this frightful team is public debt. Taxation follows that, and in its train wretchedness and oppression.

– Thomas JeffersonRate it:

We must not lose our trust in the power of kindness.

– Debasish Mridha, M.D.Rate it:
