Then, Sir, we will give them the bayonet!

My men have sometimes failed to take a position, but to defend one, never!

My religious belief teaches me to feel as safe in battle as in bed. God has fixed the time for my death. I do not concern myself about that, but to be always ready, no matter when it may overtake me.

The patriot volunteer, fighting for country and his rights, makes the most reliable soldier on earth.

This army stays here until the last wounded man is removed. Before I leave them to the enemy, I will lose many more men.

Madam, if your son were to come home and try to shirk duty, you ought to shut your door in his face and treat him as a renegade unworthy of your name or regard.

Press on, press on, men.
