Although a soldier by profession, I have never felt any sort of fondness for war, and I have never advocated it, except as a means of peace.

If men make war in slavish obedience to rules, they will fail.

I propose to fight it out on this line if it takes all summer.

Wars produce many stories of fiction, some of which are told until they are believed to be true.

Wherever the enemy goes let our troops go also.
