"I AM A SOLDIER. It is my duty to obey orders. It is enough to turn ones hair grey to spend one day in Congress. The members are patriotic and earnest, but they will neither take the responsibility of action nor will they clothe me with authority to act for them".

General Robert E. Lee, quoted in John B Gordon, Reminiscences, 1903
