War Quotes

Mars is not an aesthetic God.
People Quotes

No people in the history of the world have ever been so misunderstood, so misjudged, and so cruelly maligned.
Memories Quotes

A people without the memories of heroic suffering and sacrifices are a people without a history.
Army Quotes

As for the South, it is enough to say that perhaps eighty per cent. of her armies were neither slave-holders, nor had the remotest interest in the institution. No other proof, however, is needed than the undeniable fact that at any period of the war from its beginning to near its close the South could have saved slavery by simply laying down its arms and returning to the Union.
War Quotes

General Lee, this is no place for you. These men behind you are Georgians and Virginians. They have never failed you and will not fail you here. Will you boys?
