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

It is well that war is so terrible. We should grow too fond of it.

What a glorious world Almighty God has given us. How thankless and ungrateful we are, and how we labor to mar his gifts.

Our country demands all our strength, all our energies. To resist the powerful combination now forming against us will require every man at his place. If victorious, we will have everything to hope for in the future. If defeated, nothing will be left for us to live for.

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

We have but one rule here, and that is that every student must be a gentleman.

It is history that teaches us to hope.
