There should have been a quote from George Washington in there.
If only someone had written down what he said to Charles Lee at Monmouth. That would have been something to hear.
He was said to have had a VERY loud voice.
It’s not an American quote, but, extremely manly in my opinion:
“O Lord, Thou knowest how busy I must be this day. If I forget Thee, do not forget me.” which he followed promptly with the order “March on, boys!” Jacob Astley, 1st Baron Astley of Reading at the battle of Edge Hill.
