Our God Was My Shield. His Protecting

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.

The Only True Rule For Cavalry Is To Follow The Enemy As Long As He Retreats.

The Hardships Of Forced Marches Are Often More Painful Than The Dangers Of Battle

I Yield To No Man In Sympathy For The Gallant Men Under My Command; But I Am Obliged To Sweat Them Tonight, So That I May Save Their Blood Tomorrow.

This Army Stays Here Until The Last Wounded Man Is Removed. Before I Leave Them To The Enemy, I Will Lose Many More Men.
