Union Soldiers

Famous quotes containing the words union and/or soldiers:

    If the union of these States, and the liberties of this people, shall be lost, it is but little to any one man of fifty-two years of age, but a great deal to the thirty millions of people who inhabit these United States, and to their posterity in all coming time.
    Abraham Lincoln (1809–1865)

    As soldiers we have few saving graces. Perhaps our willingness to die for what we believe in is all that matters.
    Leo V. Gordon, U.S. screenwriter, and Arthur Hiller. Col. Harker (Nigel Green)
