Wars are not all evil, they are part of the grand machinery by which this world is governed.

I beg to present you as a Christmas gift the city of Savannah.

There's many a boy here today who looks on war as all glory but it is all hell.

You people speak so lightly of war; you don't know what you're talking about. War is a terrible thing!

War is cruelty. There is no use trying to reform it. The crueler it is, the sooner it will be over.

This war differs from other wars, in this particular. We are not fighting armies but a hostile people, and must make old and young, rich and poor, feel the hard hand of war.

...[We] must stop these swarms of Jews who are trading, bartering and robbing.
