I Am Sworn To Uphold The Constitution

I Tell Our Sisters In The South That So Far As Tennessee Is Concerned She Will Not Be Dragged Into A Southern Or Any Other Confederacy Until She Has Had Time To Consider; And Then She Will Go When She Believes It To Be Her Interest, And Not Before.

If The Rabble Were Lopped Off At One End And The Aristocrat At The Other, All Would Be Well With The Country.

Honest Conviction Is My Courage; The Constitution Is My Guide.

There Are No Good Laws But Such As Repeal Other Laws.

Duties Have Been Mine; Consequences Are God's.
