“Screw ambiguity. Perversion and corruption masquerade as ambiguity. I don’t like ambiguity.” ~ John Wayne

"If there was not a negro
in all the land south of Mason and Dixon's line, we should still advocate immediate and eternal disunion, because the North believes that this Government is a consolidated despotism, instead of an agent entrusted, during good behaviour, with certain delegated and restricted powers."

-George William Bagby, Southern Literary Messenger, Volume 32, Issue 4, Pg. 328 [Notices of New Works] April, 1861.
