The Enemy Never Sees The Backs Of

But What A Cruel Thing Is War To Separate And Destroy Families And Friends.

We Must Expect Reverses, Even Defeats. They Are Sent To Teach Us Wisdom And Prudence, To Call Forth Greater Energies, And To Prevent Our Falling Into Greater Disasters.

We Failed, But In The Good Providence Of God Apparent Failure Often Proves A Blessing.

Shake Off Those Gloomy Feelings. Drive Them Away. Fix Your Mind And Pleasures Upon What Is Before You.all Is Bright If You Will Think It So. All Is Happy If You Will Make It So. Do Not Dream. It Is Too Ideal, Too Imaginary. Dreaming By Day, I Mean. Live In The World You Inhabit. Look Upon Things As They Are. Take Them As You Find Them. Make The Best Of Them. Turn Them To Your Advantage.

A Union That Can Only Be Maintained By Swords And Bayonets, And In Which Strife And Civil War Are To Take The Place Of Brotherly Love And Kindness, Has No Charm For Me.
