I must confess that my imagination refuses to see any sort of submarine doing anything but suffocating its crew and floundering at sea.

We have sort of a submarine program, we are not getting the limelight. But in the long run, it will be very interesting to see who comes out ahead.

Every dogma must have its day

It is not reasonable that those who gamble with men's lives should not pay with their own.

Sailors ought never to go to church. They ought to go to hell, where it is much more comfortable.

Leaders should lead as far as they can and then vanish. Their ashes should not choke the fire they have lit.
