Nope — Kragar had it right: William Tecumseh Sherman.
Sherman had some great quotes:
Every attempt to make war easy and safe will result in humiliation and disaster.
I hate newspapermen. They come into camp and pick up their camp rumors and print them as facts. I regard them as spies, which, in truth, they are.
I make up my opinions from facts and reasoning, and not to suit any body but myself. If people don’t like my opinions, it makes little difference as I don’t solicit their opinions or votes.
If forced to choose between the penitentiary and the White House for four years, I would say the penitentiary, thank you.
