I Will Be In My Coffin Before

No Damn Man Kills Me And Lives.

If One Road Led To Hell And The Other To Mexico, I Would Be Indifferent Which To Take.

I Am Not Here To Pass Civilities Or Compliments With You, But On Other Business. I Have Stood Your Meanness As Long As I Intend To. You Have Played The Part Of A Damned Scoundrel, And Are A Coward, And If You Were Any Part Of A Man I Would Slap Your Jaws And Force You To Resent It. You May As Well Not Issue Any More Orders To Me, For I Will Not Obey Them... And As I Say To You That If You Ever Again Try To Interfere With Me Or Cross My Path It Will Be At The Peril Of Your Life.

Get There First With The Most Men.

I Loved The Old Government In 1861. I Loved The Old Constitution Yet. I Think It Is The Best Government In The World, If Administered As It Was Before The War. I Do Not Hate It; I Am Opposing Now Only The Radical Revolutionists Who Are Trying To Destroy It. I Believe That Party To Be Composed, As I Know It Is In Tennessee, Of The Worst Men On Gods Earth - Men Who Would Not Hesitate At No Crime, And Who Have Only One Object In View - To Enrich Themselves.
