"They don't even need guns to defend that! All they've got to do is roll rocks down on us!" -Major General John Bell Hood "No we'll see how Professors fight" -Colonel Strong Vincent "Gentlemen... the 83rd Pennsylvania, 44th New York, and 16th Michigan will be moving in to our right. But if you look to our left, you will see that there is no one there. It's because we're the end of the line. The Union army stops here. We are the flank. Do you understand, gentlemen? We cannot retreat. We cannot withdraw. We are going to have to be stubborn today. So, you put the boys in position, you tell them to stay down. Pile the rocks up high; get the best protection you can" -Colonel Joshua Lawrence Chamberlain
