I know only two tunes: one of them is 'Yankee Doodle', and the other isn't.

I have nothing to do with opinions. I deal only with armed rebellion and its aiders and abettors.

No other terms than unconditional and immediate surrender. I propose to move immediately upon your works.

I know no method to secure the repeal of bad or obnoxious laws so effective as their stringent execution.

I would suggest the taxation of all property equally, whether church or corporation, exempting only the last resting place of the dead and possibly, with proper restrictions, church edifices.

I have made it a rule of my life to trust a man long after other people gave him up, but I don't see how I can ever trust any human being again.
