War Means Fighting, And Fighting Means Killing.

I Went Into The Army Worth A Million And A Half Dollars, And Came Out A Beggar.

We Are Born On The Same Soil, Breathe The Same Air, Live On The Same Land, And Why Should We Not Be Brothers And Sisters?

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.

I Have Stood Your Meanness As Long As I Intend To. You Have Played The Part Of A Damn Scoundrel, And If You Were Any Part Of A Man I Would Slap Your Jaws And Force You To Resent It.

I Have Never On The Field Of Battle Sent You Where I Was Unwilling To Go Myself, Nor Would I Now Advise You To A Course Which I Felt Myself Unwilling To Pursue. You Have Been Good Soldiers. You Can Be Good Citizens. Obey The Laws, Preserve Your Honor, And The Government To Which You Have Surrendered Can Afford To Be And Will Be Magnanimous.
