Alabama soldiers, all I ask of you is to keep up with the Texans!

Go home all you boys who fought with me and help build up the shattered fortunes of our old state

So far from engaging in a war to perpetuate slavery, I am rejoiced that Slavery is abolished. I believe it will be greatly for the interest of the South. So fully am I satisfied of this that I would have cheerfully lost all that I have lost by the war, and have suffered all that I have suffered to have this object attained.

Whither shall I flee? To no country on earth that I know of where there is as much liberty as yet remains to me even in Virginia.

No day should be lived unless it was begun with a prayer of thankfulness and an intercession for guidance.

Without music, we wouldn't have an Army.

A land without memories is a people without liberty.
