Lt. Col. Arthur Fremantle We have so much in common, your country and mine. I earnestly hope that we shall become allies. Lt. Gen. James Longstreet Your government will never ally itself with a Confederacy that had the institution of slavery. You know that, and so do I. Lt. Gen. James Longstreet I've got some night work for you. Are you up for it? Harrison "All the world will be in love with night, and pay no worship to the garish sun!" Lt. Gen. James Longstreet When this is over, I do look forward to seeing you on the stage. Same Land. Same God. Different Dreams.
