gptkbp:famous_quote
|
War is hell.
I will make Georgia howl.
The only good Indian is a dead Indian.
You cannot qualify war in harsher terms than I will.
I have seen the elephant.
War is cruelty.
I am tired of the war.
I will not be a party to any such thing.
If I had to fight, I would fight for the Union.
The march was a hard one.
