Notable George Pickett Quotes
"Well, it is all over
now. The battle is lost, and many of us are prisoners,
many are dead, many wounded, bleeding and dying. Your
Soldier lives and mourns and but for you, my darling, he
would rather, a million times rather, be back there with
his dead, to sleep for all time in an unknown
grave."
(Said in a letter to his fiancee after Pickett's Charge
at Gettysburg)
