I tremble for my country when I hear of confidence expressed in me. I know too well my weakness, that our only hope is in God.

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

It is glorious to see such courage in one so young.

I will attack no matter what and win the war!

I did only what my duty demanded. I could have taken no other course without dishonor.

We failed, but in the good providence of God apparent failure often proves a blessing.

I tremble for my country when I hear of confidence expressed in me. I know too well my weakness, that our only hope is in God.
