Duty Is Ours; Consequences Are God's.

In The Army Of The Shenandoah, You Were The 'first Brigade!' In The Army Of The Potomac You Were The 'first Brigade!' In The Second Corps Of This Army, You Are The 'first Brigade!' You Are The 'first Brigade' In The Affections Of Your General, And I Hope By Your Future Deeds And Bearing You Will Be Handed Down The Posterity As The 'first Brigade' In This Our Second War Of Independence. Farewell!

I Like Liquor - Its Taste And Its Effects - And That Is Just The Reason Why I Never Drink It.

Press On, Press On, Men.

Our Movement Was A Great Success; I Think The Most Successful Military Movement Of My Life. But I Expect To Receive More Credit For It Than I Deserve. Most Men Will Think I Planned It All From The First; But It Was Not So. I Simply Took Advantage Of Circumstances As They Were Presented To Me In The Providence Of God. I Feel That His Hand Led Me - Let Us Give Him The Glory.
