My chief concern is to try to be an humble, earnest Christian.

I am now considered such a monster, that I hesitate to darken with my shadow, the doors of those I love, lest I should bring upon them misfortune.

Duty is the sublimest work in the English language.

I am as willing to serve now as in the beginning in any capacity and at any post where I can do good. The lower the position, the more suitable to my ability and the more agreeable to my feelings.

What a cruel thing war is... to fill our hearts with hatred instead of love for our neighbors.

I have never witnessed on any previous occasion such entire disregard of the usage of civilized warfare and the dictates of humanity.

I will attack no matter what and win the war!
