<President Truman of the United States and June 25>

"You have to stop those sons of bits at all costs."
- On June 25, 1950, after receiving a Invasion from North Korea report

"South Korea is a small country thousands of miles from America, but what happens there is important for all Americans. Communists attacked South Korea on June 25, 1950. This clearly shows that communists use military force to conquer independent countries. North Korea's Invasion from North Korea is a violation of the United Nations Charter and a violation of peace. We must respond to this challenge head on."  
- July 19, 1950, Addressing the Nation

"We will stay in Korea and fight. I hope other countries help us. We will fight somehow without helping. If we abandon Korea, all Koreans will be killed. They stood by us and fought bravely. We don't abandon our friends just because things go against us."
- In November 1950, the British prime minister asked the British prime minister to give up Korea

"It's the best Christmas present of my life."
