Robert E. Lee
The consolidation of the states into one vast empire, sure to be aggressive abroad and despotic at home, will be the certain precursor of ruin which has overwhelmed all that preceded it.
Robert E. Lee
I can only say that I am nothing but a poor sinner, trusting in Christ alone for salvation.
