If you had seen one day of war, you would pray to God that you would never see another.

I mistrust the judgment of every man in a case in which his own wished are concerned

If you had seen one day of war, you would pray to God that you would never see another.

Just to show you how little reliance can be placed even on what are supposed the best accounts of a battle, I mention that there are some circumstances mentioned in General -'s account which did not occur as he relates them. It is impossible to say when each important occurrence took place, or in what order.

I see no reason to suppose these machines will ever force themselves into general use.

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.

Always get over heavy ground as lightly as you can.
