I mistrust the judgment of every man in a case in which his own wished are concerned
The only thing I am afraid of is fear.
God deliver me from my friends! I'll take care of my enemies myself.
A great country can have no such thing as a little war.
I attribute my success on the battlefield to always being on the spot to see and do everything for myself
I am not only not prepared to bring forward any measure of this nature, but I will at once declare that, as far as I am concerned, as long as I hold any station in the Government of the country, I shall always feel it my duty to resist such measures when proposed by others.
