What I Desire Most Of You, My

We Are Born On The Same Soil, Breathe The Same Air, Live On The Same Land, And Why Should We Not Be Brothers And Sisters?

What I Desire Most Of You, My Son, Is Never To Gamble Or Swear. These Are Baneful Vices.

Never Stand And Take A Charge... Charge Them Too.

I Have Never On The Field Of Battle Sent You Where I Was Unwilling To Go Myself, Nor Would I Now Advise You To A Course Which I Felt Myself Unwilling To Pursue. You Have Been Good Soldiers. You Can Be Good Citizens. Obey The Laws, Preserve Your Honor, And The Government To Which You Have Surrendered Can Afford To Be And Will Be Magnanimous.

We Have But One Flag, One Country; Let Us Stand Together. We May Differ In Color, But Not In Sentiment.
