Quotes from
Gen. George Armstrong Custer:
War isn't just killing, you know. It's a contest. It's a man against a man.

Gen. Philip Sheridan: You know, you could become a living legend... or get yourself killed. Dead men make better legends.
Gen. Philip Sheridan: The only good Indian is a dead Indian!
