Wars Are Not All Evil, They Are

But, My Dear Sirs, When Peace Does Come, You May Call On Me For Any Thing. Then Will I Share With You The Last Cracker, And Watch With You To Shield Your Homes And Families Against Danger From Every Quarter.

Every Attempt To Make War Easy And Safe Will Result In Humiliation And Disaster.

Though I Never Ordered It, And Never Wished For It, I Have Never Shed Any Tears Over The Event, Because I Believe That It Hastened What We All Fought For, The End Of The War.

...[we] Must Stop These Swarms Of Jews Who Are Trading, Bartering And Robbing.

If Nominated By Either Party, I Should Peremptorily Decline, And Even If Unanimously Elected, I Should Decline To Serve.
