Tact is the art of making a point without making an enemy. Peace and friendship with all mankind is our wisest policy, and I wish we may be permitted to pursue it. Peace, commerce and honest friendship with all nations; entangling alliances with none. Peace is not absence of conflict, it is the ability to handle conflict by peaceful means. To say nothing, especially when speaking, is half the art of diplomacy. The policeman must be a minister, a social worker, a diplomat, a tough guy, and a gentleman. And, of course, he'd have to be a genius... For he will have to feed a family on a policeman's salary.
