We Must Make This Campaign An Exceedingly

I Have So Fixed The Habit In My Own Mind That I Never Raise A Glass Of Water To My Lips Without A Moment's Asking Of God's Blessing. I Never Seal A Letter Without Putting A Word Of Prayer Under The Seal. I Never Take A Letter From The Post Without A Brief Sending Of My Thoughts Heavenward. I Never Change Classes In The Section Room Without A Minute's Petition On The Cadets Who Go Out And Those Who Come In.

Arms Is A Profession That, If Its Principles Are Adhered To For Success, Requires An Officer Do What He Fears May Be Wrong, And Yet, According To Military Experience, Must Be Done, If Success Is To Be Attained.

We Are All But Instruments Of God.

The Only Winner Today Is Big Business.

In The Army Of The Shenandoah, You Were The 'first Brigade!' In The Army Of The Potomac You Were The 'first Brigade!' In The Second Corps Of This Army, You Are The 'first Brigade!' You Are The 'first Brigade' In The Affections Of Your General, And I Hope By Your Future Deeds And Bearing You Will Be Handed Down The Posterity As The 'first Brigade' In This Our Second War Of Independence. Farewell!
