More From William Tecumseh Sherman
- "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."
- "War is the remedy that our enemies have chosen, and I say let us give them all they want."
- "It is only those who have neither fired a shot nor heard the shrieks and groans of the wounded who cry aloud for blood, more vengeance, more desolation. War is hell."

- "War contains so much folly, as well as wickedness, that much is to be hoped from the progress of reason."― James Madison
