I Have Never Advocated War

I Felt Like Anything Rather Than Rejoicing At The Downfall Of A Foe Who Had Fought So Long And Valiantly, And Had Suffered So Much For A Cause, Though That Cause Was, I Believe, One Of The Worst For Which A People Ever Fought, And One For Which There Was The Least Excuse.

The Art Of War Is Simple Enough. Find Out Where Your Enemy Is. Get At Him As Soon As You Can. Strike Him As Hard As You Can, And Keep Moving On.

Let No Guilty Man Escape, If It Can He Avoided. . . . No Personal Consideration Should Stand In The Way Of Performing A Public Duty.

In Politics I Am Growing Indifferent - I Would Like It, If I Could Now Return To My Planting And Books At Home

I Know Only Two Tunes: One Of Them Is "yankee Doodle" And The Other Isn't.
