You May Be Whatever You

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.

If Officers Desire To Have Control Over Their Commands, They Must Remain Habitually With Them, Industriously Attend To Their Instruction And Comfort, And In Battle Lead Them Well.

You May Be Whatever You Resolve To Be.

My Men Have Sometimes Failed To Take A Position, But To Defend One, Never!

The Hardships Of Forced Marches Are Often More Painful Than The Dangers Of Battle
