"For Gods sake, men, you march like a bunch of crippled old goats! Jesus Christ, were gonna be here day and night till we get this right! One, one! Company, halt! About-face! You are ugly Mexican, African fucking whores! Were gonna work on this day and night till we get this right, gentlemen. Forward at the half step. March!"

"Pvt. Jupiter Sharts: [praying aloud] Tomorrow we goes into battle. So Lordy, let me fight with the rifle in one hand and the Good Book in the other. So that if I may die at the muzzle of the rifle...die on water, or on land, I may know that you blessed Jesus almighty are with me...and I will have no fear."

"Theres more to fighting than rest, sir. Theres character. Theres strength of heart. You should have seen us in action two days ago. We were a sight to see! Well be ready, sir. When do you want us?"

"It is my job to get these men ready. And I will. They have risked their lives to be here, they have given up their freedom. I owe them as much as they have given. I owe them my freedom...my life if necessary."

"[addressing the 54th the night before battle] I aint much about no prayin, now. I aint never had no family, and...killed off my mama. Well, I just...Yalls the onliest family I got. I love the 54th. Aint even much a matter what happens tomorrow, cause we men, aint we? We men."
