Quotes
“To secede from the Union and set up another government
would cause war. If you go to war with the United States,
you will never conquer her, as she has the money and men.
If she does not whip you by guns, powder, and steel, she
will starve you to death. It will take the flower of the country
– the young men.” - Governor Sam Houston
