#war

I don't analyze what I'm doing. I've read convincing interpretations of my work, and sometimes I've noticed something that I wasn't aware of, but I think, at this point, people read into my work out of habit. Or I'm just very, very smart. ↗

War is the remedy that our enemies have chosen, and I say let us give them all they want. ↗

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. ↗

I know I had no hand in making this war, and I know I will make more sacrifices today than any of you to secure peace. ↗

I would make this war as severe as possible, and show no symptoms of tiring till the South begs for mercy. ↗
