Unless you do your best, the day will come when, tired and hungry, you will halt just short of the goal you were ordered to reach, and by halting you will make useless the efforts and deaths of thousands.

Take not counsel of your fears

Often I have encountered in life that great disappointments have proved to be the road to future successes.

The test of success is not what you do when you are on top. Success is how high you bounce when you hit bottom.

Success demands a high level of logistical and organizational competence.

Success is how you bounce on the bottom.

Urge all of your men to pray, not alone in church, but everywhere. Pray when driving. Pray when fighting. Pray alone. Pray with others. Pray by night and pray by day. Pray for the cessation of immoderate rains, for good weather for Battle.Pray for the defeat of our wicked enemy whose banner is injustice and whose good is oppression. Pray for victory. Pray for our Army, and Pray for Peace. We must march together, all out for God.
