We shall never forget that it was our submarines that held the lines against the enemy while our fleets replaced losses and repaired wounds. Chester W. Nimitz
You may hear people say that submarines have done away with the battleship, and that aircraft have annulled the mastery of the sea. That is what our pessimists say. But do you imagine that the clumsy submarine or the fragile aeroplane is really the last word of science? John Buchan
I think a submarine is a very worthwhile weapon. I believe we can defend ourselves with submarines and all our troops back at home. This whole idea that we have to be in 130 countries and 900 bases... is an old-fashioned idea. Ron Paul
I would say to the leaders of the Soviet Union, and to their people, that if either of our countries is to be fully secure, we need a much better weapon than the H-bomb - a weapon better than ballistic missiles or nuclear submarines - and that better weapon is peaceful cooperation. John F. Kennedy
And now, our submarines are armed with mass murder, our silly, only way of deterring mass murder. John Steinbeck
When you consider all the stars I have managed, mere submarines make me smile. Charles Frohman
