I Love Texas Too Well To Bring

I Declare That Civil War Is Inevitable And Is Near At Hand. When It Comes The Descendants Of The Heroes Of Lexington And Bunker Hill Will Be Found Equal In Patriotism, Courage And Heroic Endurance With The Descendants Of The Heroes Of Cowpens And Yorktown. For This Reason I Predict The Civil War Which Is Now At Hand Will Be Stubborn And Of Long Duration.

I Love Texas Too Well To Bring Civil Strife And Bloodshed Upon Her.

My God, Is It Possible That All The People Have Gone Mad? The Civil War Now Being Inaugurated Will Be As Horrible As His Satanic Majesty Could Desire.

I Would Give No Thought Of What The World Might Say Of Me, If I Could Only Transmit To Posterity The Reputation Of An Honest Man.

Texas Has Yet To Learn Submission To Any Oppression, Come From What Source It May.
